136
00:07:39,250 --> 00:07:40,501
There was a...
137
00:07:41,961 --> 00:07:43,463
There was an archer...
138
00:07:44,672 --> 00:07:47,508
There was an archer who was in love
with his sister.
139
00:07:48,176 --> 00:07:50,094
So, the archer looked at his sister
140
00:07:50,636 --> 00:07:51,554
and he said,
141
00:07:53,306 --> 00:07:57,101
"All the madness
between me and you is real private."
142
00:07:58,186 --> 00:08:01,481
But the sister was too scared,
so the sister...
143
00:08:02,356 --> 00:08:06,444
the sister put down her cigarette
and she married the sultan.
144
00:08:07,236 --> 00:08:10,865
So the archer became a... the archer
for the king.
145
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:14,952
So, it was the wedding night,
and the sultan and the sister
146
00:08:15,036 --> 00:08:16,454
were gonna get married.
147
00:08:16,913 --> 00:08:17,955
And so...
148
00:08:19,081 --> 00:08:22,126
the archer went out the door,
and he had on his armor,
149
00:08:22,335 --> 00:08:24,712
and he was going. There was all, like...
150
00:08:24,837 --> 00:08:28,216
You know how like the gran-- ground was
in 16th-century Japan?
151
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:30,760
It was black and green like a chessboard.
152
00:08:31,093 --> 00:08:34,555
So the archer was walking
on the black part of the chessboard,
153
00:08:34,805 --> 00:08:36,933
and he looked
at the black part of the chessboard,
154
00:08:37,016 --> 00:08:39,477
and it looked
like the back of his sister's hair.
155
00:08:39,644 --> 00:08:41,187
-And so...
-[guitar plays]

00:08:48,361 --> 00:08:50,530
Looked like the back of his sister's hair,
160
00:08:50,655 --> 00:08:53,574
and so he couldn't advance
and be the king's archer no more,
161
00:08:53,658 --> 00:08:56,911
because he looked over at the palace,
and over at the palace,
162
00:08:57,036 --> 00:08:59,121
he saw his sister undressing

for the sultan.
164
00:09:00,331 --> 00:09:03,709
So the prince took off a--
took off all his armor,
165
00:09:03,793 --> 00:09:06,170
and he started walking toward the palace.
166

00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:43,103
-Freewheeling.
-It wasn't--
345
00:17:43,187 --> 00:17:45,856
It wasn't meant to be specifically--
specifically that.
346
00:17:45,939 --> 00:17:47,649
Yeah, but you started talking
about marriage.
347
00:17:47,733 --> 00:17:48,901
Out of the blue,
348
00:17:48,984 --> 00:17:51,445
-the subject of marriage came up.
-But what did you say?

[interviewer] Was the idea to make
a behind-the-scenes film of the tour?
355
00:18:16,136 --> 00:18:18,097
[van Dorp] I think that's
what they were expecting.
356
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:20,891
They just thought that
I was going to make it a concert film,
357
00:18:20,974 --> 00:18:23,352
but I was trying to make something
really serious out of this.
358
00:18:23,936 --> 00:18:27,189
First, what I wanted to show was
musicians working together,
359
00:18:27,272 --> 00:18:28,524
making music together.
360
00:18:28,732 --> 00:18:30,234
That was them doing their job.
361
00:18:30,567 --> 00:18:31,777
That was, you know,
362
00:18:31,860 --> 00:18:34,988
that was as if I went to film my father
in his shoe store.
363
00:18:35,489 --> 00:18:36,448
Focus in on that.
364
00:18:37,616 --> 00:18:38,867
[van Dorp] What is that, Patti?
365
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:41,203
I seen th-- this Rimbaud book,
366
00:18:41,453 --> 00:18:43,163
and I saw this picture.
367
00:18:43,247 --> 00:18:45,916
I saw this vogue picture,
and I thought it looked like you,
368
00:18:45,999 --> 00:18:48,001
-and I thought he was a neat guy, y'know?
-Yeah?
369
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:51,797
And I thought you were neat, so I used to,
like, pretend he was my boyfriend.
370
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,341
Or if-- Or if you were.
You know, it doesn't matter, right?
371
00:18:54,424 --> 00:18:55,259
So anyway...
372
00:18:55,342 --> 00:18:56,426
What did you say?
373
00:18:56,510 --> 00:18:57,761
-What did I say?
-Yeah.
374
00:18:57,970 --> 00:19:00,681
[clicks tongue] I gave my thoughts on...
375
00:19:00,764 --> 00:19:03,267
He spoke about mental marriage.
376
00:19:03,559 --> 00:19:04,977
-When he asked me--
-Mental marriage?
377
00:19:05,060 --> 00:19:06,979
Uh, Superman takes a piece of coal,
378
00:19:07,062 --> 00:19:09,648
and he puts it in his hand,
and he starts squeezing it,
379
00:19:09,731 --> 00:19:11,942
and squeezing it, and squeezing it,
and squeezing it,
380
00:19:12,025 --> 00:19:13,402
and then it becomes like a diamond.
381
00:19:13,485 --> 00:19:14,444
-It's real hard.
-Yeah.
382
00:19:14,528 --> 00:19:16,280
And then, like, he drops it
on the ground,
383
00:19:16,363 --> 00:19:17,614
-on the baseball diamond.
-Yeah.
384
00:19:17,698 --> 00:19:20,200
And the kids, the kids keep kicking it,
the kids keep kicking it.
385
00:19:20,284 --> 00:19:21,785
-Yeah.
-Then it goes round and round.
386
00:19:21,869 --> 00:19:23,871
And after years and years
of kids kicking it around,
387
00:19:23,954 --> 00:19:26,456
it gets smooth, but it's not...
It's just changed.
388
00:19:26,540 --> 00:19:29,418
It's still the same crystal,
but it's smooth, so it's a crystal ball.
389
00:19:29,501 --> 00:19:30,919
So it's sitting there in the middle,
390
00:19:31,003 --> 00:19:33,755
the crystal ball is sitting there
in the middle of the baseball diamond.
391
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:35,257
-Right.
-Okay? Now you can look in.

the, you know, the-- the facilitators.
396
00:19:44,224 --> 00:19:46,518
You know,
the-- the people hanging around him.
397
00:19:46,727 --> 00:19:49,021
People pretending that they had access,
398
00:19:49,104 --> 00:19:50,772
so that they could behave badly.
399
00:19:51,064 --> 00:19:52,649
This film was going to show
400
00:19:52,733 --> 00:19:56,236
the counterpoint
between the... the excesses of the people
401
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,031
on the tour
and the dissolution of society.

00:26:01,601 --> 00:26:03,853
I mean, it's rock 'n' roll,
but it's a special event.
518
00:26:03,937 --> 00:26:05,897
where rock 'n' roll
has four or five legends,
519
00:26:06,314 --> 00:26:09,234
this is one of them, and maybe
the biggest one at the present time.

[man 2] Not to brag,
but Rolling Thunder was kinda my idea,
522
00:26:21,788 --> 00:26:22,622
you know.
523
00:26:22,706 --> 00:26:24,958
Bob had done that tour with The Band
a few years back,
524
00:26:25,041 --> 00:26:26,918
and that was super successful,
525
00:26:27,002 --> 00:26:30,297
and then Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
were filling 50,000 seats a night.
526
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,633
And Zeppelin was huge.
I mean, there was money everywhere.
527
00:26:33,717 --> 00:26:36,344
You know, all you had to do
was bend down, pick it up.
528
00:26:36,636 --> 00:26:40,682
So, I had an idea that some kind of revue
with Bob would be a gold mine.
529
00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:42,976
So I went off and pitched the idea,
530
00:26:43,059 --> 00:26:45,145
and a bunch of local promoters
were interested.
531
00:26:45,645 --> 00:26:48,440
And then by the time I was done,
I ended up with 15 headliners.

was when he was onstage

[Sloman] How did it become
"Rolling Thunder Revue"?
547
00:27:25,935 --> 00:27:28,271
Well, I asked Bob.
He said originally he was gonna call it
548
00:27:28,355 --> 00:27:29,522
Montezuma's Revue,
549
00:27:29,689 --> 00:27:30,982
but then he said he was home,
550
00:27:31,107 --> 00:27:34,110
and he was just kind of trying to think
of a name for the tour,
551
00:27:34,194 --> 00:27:36,613
when all of a sudden in the sky,
he heard, "Boom!"
552
00:27:36,696 --> 00:27:38,948
And then, from left to right,
553
00:27:39,074 --> 00:27:40,075
punctuating the sky,
554
00:27:40,241 --> 00:27:41,534
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
555
00:27:41,993 --> 00:27:44,579
So he said,
"Hey, let's call it 'Rolling Thunder.'"
556
00:27:44,663 --> 00:27:45,997
So before we even left,
557
00:27:46,206 --> 00:27:48,083
Chesley Millikin, who was on the tour,
says,
558
00:27:48,166 --> 00:27:50,460
"Bob, you know what 'rolling thunder'
means to the Indians?"
559
00:27:50,543 --> 00:27:53,588
And he goes, "What, man?"
And Chesley goes, "Speaking truth."
560
00:27:53,713 --> 00:27:56,299
And then Bob goes,
"I'm glad to hear that, man."
561
00:27:56,508 --> 00:27:59,260
Of course, later on we found out
that Rolling Thunder was actually
562
00:27:59,344 --> 00:28:02,180
the code name
for, uh, Nixon's bombing of Cambodia.
563
00:28:02,722 --> 00:28:06,518
And that Guam, the backup band,
was the base that, uh, they took off from.

685
00:35:02,975 --> 00:35:04,268
I said, "Yeah, yeah,
686
00:35:04,811 --> 00:35:08,231
uh, you'd have to
to write plays like that."
687
00:35:08,773 --> 00:35:11,651
And I asked him if he wanted to, uh,
write for, uh,
688
00:35:12,485 --> 00:35:15,029
this movie
that this guy van Dorp was making.
689
00:35:15,321 --> 00:35:20,576
And he went to meet with van Dorp,
and then he came back, and he said, uh...
690
00:35:20,952 --> 00:35:22,787
he didn't know where the guy
was coming from,
691
00:35:22,870 --> 00:35:25,081
but if I wanted him to do it, he would.
692
00:35:25,164 --> 00:35:27,583
So, that's how Sam got involved.
693
00:35:28,167 --> 00:35:30,419
I was living
in Homestead Valley, California,
694
00:35:31,045 --> 00:35:35,758
running a horse boarding farm. [laughs]
695
00:35:36,801 --> 00:35:40,888
It was a little bit unclear
what-- what exactly he wanted me to do.
696
00:35:40,972 --> 00:35:44,100
I was like a screenwriter
or writer for hire, you know.
697
00:35:44,183 --> 00:35:46,561
So, sure. So, I joined up.
698
00:35:47,353 --> 00:35:50,898
I was just kind of there for the ride,
basically,
699
00:35:50,982 --> 00:35:52,859
and-- and as an observer
700
00:35:52,942 --> 00:35:57,238
and trying to make sense of something,
you know.
701
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,704
[Shepard] New England was just
experiencing the backbone
702
00:36:04,787 --> 00:36:06,789
of that economic fallout,
703
00:36:06,873 --> 00:36:10,376
you know, way back then,
it was, you know, desolate...
704
00:36:10,668 --> 00:36:13,838
Uh, really,
really difficult economic times, you know.
705
00:36:13,921 --> 00:36:17,341

[rhythmic clapping]
707

[Shepard]
Rock 'n' roll was some kind of, a...
708
00:36:21,345 --> 00:36:23,181
I don't know, a kind of medicine
or something.
709
00:36:23,264 --> 00:36:25,057
[van Dorp] Do you have tickets

711

such a small place?
712
00:36:29,979 --> 00:36:32,773

[interviewer] Wasn't that the year
of the bicentennial, also?

[Shepard] The bicentennial,
716
00:36:39,822 --> 00:36:41,490

you know,
717
00:36:41,574 --> 00:36:43,034
they didn't give a shit, you know.

00:36:43,159 --> 00:36:45,453

You know what I mean?

[Shepard] And particularly
with those songs

00:40:28,968 --> 00:40:32,847
that had this kind of saga element
about 'em, you know,
779
00:40:32,930 --> 00:40:37,101
it had a rejuvenating effect, I think,
you know, it was very exhilarating.

in, uh, uh, Stratford-on-Avon,

you know, where the...
where these rivers cross,
785
00:40:54,785 --> 00:40:57,872
and it was on the way outskirts of London.
786
00:40:58,330 --> 00:41:01,208
And these troubadours and vagabonds
787
00:41:01,292 --> 00:41:07,131
and carnival people from all over
were coming into London to perform.
788

of these rivers.

-This is Larry.
877
00:46:52,392 --> 00:46:54,520
-[Dylan] Larry, how you doing?
-You got a minute?
878
00:46:54,603 --> 00:46:56,605
[Sloman] I gotta do a story in an hour,
879
00:46:56,688 --> 00:46:59,107
and I just need
about two or three paragraphs.
880
00:47:00,108 --> 00:47:01,276
-[Dylan] Okay.
-Are you up?
881
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:02,611

just talk about the music, okay?
884
00:47:10,786 --> 00:47:11,995
[Dylan] What do you wanna know?
885
00:47:12,079 --> 00:47:14,164
[Sloman] I've never seen you
so fuckin' great onstage.
886
00:47:14,248 --> 00:47:16,542
I've never seen you so loose. How come?
887

early in the morning, I can't even think.

-[Sloman laughs]
-[Dylan] Uh...
889
00:47:22,756 --> 00:47:25,634
[Dylan] Well, it's just the element
I work best in, you know?
890
00:47:25,884 --> 00:47:27,344
You seen those Italian...
891
00:47:27,427 --> 00:47:29,555
those Italian troupes
that go around in Italy,
892
00:47:29,638 --> 00:47:31,557
-those Italian street theaters...
-[Sloman] Yeah.
893
00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:34,142
[Dylan] The wagon, the wagon troupes,
Commedia dell'arte?
894
00:47:34,226 --> 00:47:35,269
[Sloman] Yeah, right.
895
00:47:35,352 --> 00:47:37,813
[Dylan] This is kind of an extension
of that, only musically.
896
00:47:37,896 --> 00:47:39,857
-[Sloman] Music Commedia dell'arte?
-[Dylan] Yeah.

00:47:45,737 --> 00:47:48,115
[man] If somebody told you Bob Dylan
was coming to Providence,
902
00:47:48,198 --> 00:47:51,034
you probably wouldn't believe them,
but he is, along with Joan Baez,
903
00:47:51,118 --> 00:47:53,203
Ramblin' Jack Elliott, and Bob Neuwirth,
904
00:47:53,745 --> 00:47:58,083
and it's called the Rolling Thunder Revue
at the Providence Civic Center, Tuesday...
905
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:00,002
[Gianopulos] You'd book the venues,
906
00:48:00,085 --> 00:48:02,421
make deals with each
of the local promoters,
907
00:48:02,713 --> 00:48:04,464
and then you'd show up.
908
00:48:04,882 --> 00:48:07,092
And, you know,
you'd have a deal for the gate.
909
00:48:07,175 --> 00:48:08,427
And, you know,
910
00:48:08,510 --> 00:48:10,512
hopefully everything would go out,
would go well,
911
00:48:10,596 --> 00:48:12,014
and everybody'd make a little money.
912
00:48:12,097 --> 00:48:14,308
Hey, man, it wasn't your door
and you weren't invited.
913
00:48:14,391 --> 00:48:17,102
-Hey, don't yell at me, all right?
-Oh, I am yelling at ya.
914
00:48:17,185 --> 00:48:18,979
-[scoffs] Okay.
-Go get your cop,
915
00:48:19,062 --> 00:48:20,647
-so you can get some fuckin' help.
-Okay.
916
00:48:20,731 --> 00:48:23,483
[Gianopulos] The overall promoter
was a longtime friend of Bob's
917
00:48:23,567 --> 00:48:24,484
and a fishmonger.
918
00:48:24,568 --> 00:48:26,486
I mean, he never had managed
a tour before,
919
00:48:26,570 --> 00:48:27,821
let alone one of this size.
920
00:48:28,363 --> 00:48:30,324
It's bad for your, uh,
high blood pressure.
921
00:48:30,407 --> 00:48:32,492
-Yeah, okay.
-Bad for your high blood pressure.
922
00:48:32,576 --> 00:48:34,703
-Read him some poetry, Allen.
-Anything you wanna say...
923
00:48:34,786 --> 00:48:36,830
So he was out of his element
and underprepared,
924
00:48:36,914 --> 00:48:38,332
and he wasn't very well-liked on the tour.
925
00:48:38,874 --> 00:48:42,127
Then tell him the ushers left.
Tell him-- Tell him we're framing it.
926
00:48:42,419 --> 00:48:43,921
-[van Dorp] Hi, Barry.
-Nice.
927
00:48:45,631 --> 00:48:48,300
[Gianopulos] This guy, Barry Imhoff,
was his second-in-command,
928
00:48:48,383 --> 00:48:50,093
and he'd worked for Bill Graham for years,
929
00:48:50,177 --> 00:48:52,095
but just prior to Rolling Thunder
930
00:48:52,179 --> 00:48:54,598
had got out on his own
and started Zebra Productions.
931
00:48:54,681 --> 00:48:58,268
And this was one of, you know,
if not exactly, his first tour.
932
00:48:58,352 --> 00:49:00,395
[interviewer] What kind of jobs
would the promoter do?
933
00:49:00,479 --> 00:49:02,773
[Gianopulos]
I did whatever needed to get done.
934
00:49:03,023 --> 00:49:05,525
So one day, you're delivering pizza
to the band,
935
00:49:05,817 --> 00:49:06,777
and the next day,
936
00:49:06,860 --> 00:49:09,237
I'm... got a bag full of $15,000,
937
00:49:09,321 --> 00:49:11,740
and I'm walking through a parking lot
looking over my shoulder,
938
00:49:11,823 --> 00:49:14,076
thinking everybody knows
exactly what I'm doing.
939
00:49:14,284 --> 00:49:17,329
Well, you did what you had to do.
Some things we don't talk about.
940
00:49:18,288 --> 00:49:20,290
[indistinct chatter]
941
00:49:21,208 --> 00:49:24,044
[woman] My mom wanted to go see this tour.
942
00:49:24,628 --> 00:49:28,840
Now, you know, nobody wants
to go to a concert with their mom.
943
00:49:29,341 --> 00:49:32,177
[laughs]
Especially when they're 19 years old.
944
00:49:32,844 --> 00:49:36,682
So, rebelliously,
I-- I wore a Kiss T-shirt.
945
00:49:37,432 --> 00:49:40,560
So, I don't know which one of us
was more embarrassed,
946
00:49:40,644 --> 00:49:42,646
whether it was me or my mom.
947
00:49:42,729 --> 00:49:44,648
And we went to this concert.
948
00:49:45,148 --> 00:49:46,608
We're trying to get in,
949
00:49:47,150 --> 00:49:49,069
and the guy's giving us
kind of a hard time
950
00:49:49,152 --> 00:49:52,239
and looking at our tickets and the thing,
and we can't get in...
951
00:49:52,364 --> 00:49:55,075
And then, this guy comes walking up,
952
00:49:56,243 --> 00:49:58,829
and he doesn't have tickets,
and he tries to get in.
953
00:49:58,912 --> 00:50:00,664
And the cop at the door
is not letting him in,
954
00:50:00,747 --> 00:50:01,957
and not letting him in.
955
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,376
And so, finally, like, a bunch of people
come out,
956
00:50:04,459 --> 00:50:07,212
and they get Bob,
and Bob turns around and he's like...
957
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,466
And I'm just like this...
And my mom's like, "Come on."
958
00:50:11,550 --> 00:50:13,343
And I don't wanna, "come on,"
959
00:50:13,635 --> 00:50:17,431
but my mother pushes us through,
and so we go in with Bob, and, um...
960
00:50:17,848 --> 00:50:19,891
Bob turned around and he saw my shirt,
961
00:50:20,726 --> 00:50:21,768
and he was like,
962
00:50:22,561 --> 00:50:23,603
"Do you like them?"
963
00:50:23,979 --> 00:50:26,398
And then I realized he wanted
to talk about Kiss.
964
00:50:26,565 --> 00:50:29,860
I think I was trying to--
to sound like I was...
965
00:50:30,694 --> 00:50:32,738
smart, and so I started saying,
966
00:50:32,821 --> 00:50:37,617
"Well, you know, I think that they paint
their faces in this Kabuki style."
967
00:50:37,993 --> 00:50:38,827
And he said,
968
00:50:38,910 --> 00:50:43,248
"Oh, I bet Okuni never spit blood
into the audience." [laughs]
969
00:50:43,540 --> 00:50:46,084
And I was like, "Okuni?"
970
00:50:46,418 --> 00:50:48,837
And he's like, "Izumo no Okuni."
971
00:50:49,296 --> 00:50:50,672
Oh, and that's, you know,
972
00:50:50,756 --> 00:50:53,008
it's one of the guys who started,
uh, Kabuki.

Scarlet Rivera was some piece of work.

Most people'd kind of stay away
from Scarlet, but, uh, not me.
984

Her boyfriend at the time
was the leader of Kiss.
985
00:51:28,085 --> 00:51:30,170
And she took me over to Queens
to see them play.
986
00:51:31,088 --> 00:51:34,007
They were playing in a small club.
They had face paint on,
987
00:51:34,091 --> 00:51:35,967
and I thought that was
kind of interesting.
988
00:51:37,302 --> 00:51:39,096

They said every time
we used to do any interviews,
995
00:51:58,907 --> 00:52:02,160
all they wanted to know was,
"Ronnie, we wanna hear about the orgies."
996

a...
1006
00:52:27,102 --> 00:52:28,395

to wear a toga...

instead of that ratty cowboy hat.

1015
00:52:50,500 --> 00:52:54,087
Yeah, they put on some interesting shows
there, up there in my room.
1016
00:52:54,421 --> 00:52:56,423
[laughs]
1017
00:52:57,424 --> 00:52:59,843
I think I narrated a couple of 'em.
I'm not sure.
1018
00:53:00,343 --> 00:53:03,054
But, uh, yeah, she was something else...
wore a sword.
1019
00:53:03,847 --> 00:53:05,682
She had--
She wore a sword everywhere she went,
1020
00:53:05,765 --> 00:53:06,808
that girl, so I didn't...
1021
00:53:06,892 --> 00:53:09,728
I was a little bit uneasy
about trying to slip her out,
1022
00:53:10,145 --> 00:53:12,939
'cause, boy, if you didn't satisfy her,
she's liable to stab you.
1023
00:53:13,190 --> 00:53:15,192
[Spanish guitar playing]
1024
00:53:16,401 --> 00:53:17,652
[older Dylan] She was unusual.
1025
00:53:17,736 --> 00:53:20,572
I went to her room once,
and there was a box of stuff.
1026
00:53:21,156 --> 00:53:24,701
Like, chains and mirrors...
1027
00:53:25,535 --> 00:53:26,661
candelabras and...
1028
00:53:27,996 --> 00:53:29,164
She had swords.
1029
00:53:29,831 --> 00:53:30,832
She had a snake.
1030
00:53:31,499 --> 00:53:32,375
Just, uh...
1031
00:53:32,876 --> 00:53:35,670
many things in... in a trunk.
1032
00:53:37,130 --> 00:53:40,800
And, uh, that told me more about her
than anything she had to say.
1033
00:53:42,260 --> 00:53:44,221
["One More Cup of Coffee"
playing on violin]
1034
00:53:44,304 --> 00:53:45,639
[older Dylan] She didn't say much.
1035
00:53:47,515 --> 00:53:48,892
But she didn't have to.
1036
00:53:51,353 --> 00:53:55,398
-[van Dorp] What's that?
-[Rivera] This? This is my friend.
1037
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,445
He keeps me company while I play.
1038
00:54:00,946 --> 00:54:03,573
He's playing the dance beyond his limits.
1039
00:54:05,325 --> 00:54:07,827
Something that most people
would say is impossible.
1040
00:54:09,162 --> 00:54:13,375
But artists like to challenge
the impossible, I guess.
1041
00:54:14,292 --> 00:54:17,045
[Rivera] That's why we wear
the makeup we wear, I guess, too.
1042
00:54:19,506 --> 00:54:21,883
[van Dorp] It's a striking image
you have onstage.
1043
00:54:24,094 --> 00:54:26,596
Mr. Tambourine Man gives us
the opportunity
1044
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:29,307
to be whoever we wish to be. [laughs]
1045
00:54:29,391 --> 00:54:31,393

1047
00:54:36,564 --> 00:54:37,691
[Dylan clears throat]
1048
00:54:45,699 --> 00:54:49,035
[Dylan] This, uh, young, beautiful,
young lady over here is Scarlet.
1049
00:54:49,119 --> 00:54:50,287
She plays with us, too.
1050
00:54:58,753 --> 00:55:02,090
[speaking Romani language]
1051
00:55:09,639 --> 00:55:14,436
I'd been at the high holy gypsy holiday
at Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer,
1052
00:55:14,519 --> 00:55:15,353
South of France.
1053
00:55:20,442 --> 00:55:23,778
It happens to be on my birthday,
so it was like going home.
1054
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,962
[guitar music continues]
1055
00:55:41,421 --> 00:55:43,006
Manitas de Plata was there,
1056
00:55:43,089 --> 00:55:45,467
and he played all night
along the campfire.
1057
00:55:46,426 --> 00:55:48,219
I mean, he was fantastic.
1058
00:55:49,054 --> 00:55:53,350
And, uh, I stayed up till dawn
just listening to him play.
1059
00:55:54,351 --> 00:55:58,104
["One More Cup of Coffee" playing]
1060
00:56:31,137 --> 00:56:33,932
Some time after that,
couldn't have been more than a week,
1061
00:56:34,474 --> 00:56:37,435
that song came to me in a dream.

[audience applauds and cheers]
1096
01:00:04,434 --> 01:00:06,811
[van Dorp] Are you used
to going to rock shows?
1097
01:00:08,021 --> 01:00:10,481
No, it's one of the very few I've seen.
1098
01:00:12,233 --> 01:00:16,195
I finally realized, after last night,
I've been missing an awful lot.
1099
01:00:17,530 --> 01:00:19,490
I thought it was
the most unusual occurrence.
1100
01:00:19,574 --> 01:00:21,826
I never-- I never noticed...
1101
01:00:22,577 --> 01:00:24,746
as a-- as a part of an audience,
1102
01:00:26,414 --> 01:00:27,957
I never paid attention to a...
1103
01:00:29,751 --> 01:00:32,837
to a response between an audience
and people on the stage,
1104
01:00:32,920 --> 01:00:34,172
performers onstage.
1105
01:00:34,922 --> 01:00:38,176
That, to me,
was like a show all by itself.
1106
01:00:39,177 --> 01:00:41,804
It was like one battery charging another.
1107
01:00:45,308 --> 01:00:46,309
And...
1108
01:00:47,143 --> 01:00:50,521
you not only could feel the vibes,
you could-- you could almost see them.
1109
01:00:52,774 --> 01:00:53,816
There was a...
1110
01:00:55,860 --> 01:00:58,571
a love affair between the performers
and the audience.
1111
01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:06,204
[Rivera]
Uh, I was thinking about the forces
1112
01:01:06,287 --> 01:01:07,580
that draw people together.
1113
01:01:08,039 --> 01:01:14,295
The magnetism that makes the unit
that's now formed as Rolling Thunder.
1114
01:01:14,837 --> 01:01:15,713
And, uh...
1115
01:01:16,047 --> 01:01:18,716
to me, the future already exists.
1116
01:01:20,009 --> 01:01:22,553
For some people, maybe for everyone.
1117
01:01:25,348 --> 01:01:28,976
It's just a matter
of tuning yourself to it.
1118
01:01:34,065 --> 01:01:38,778
[Ginsberg] "I saw the best minds
of my generation destroyed by madness,
1119
01:01:39,112 --> 01:01:41,698
starving hysterical naked,
1120
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:45,535
dragging themselves
through the negro streets at dawn
1121
01:01:45,618 --> 01:01:47,745
looking for an angry fix..."
1122
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,457
Allen Ginsberg was a saintlike figure.
1123
01:01:52,208 --> 01:01:55,211
It was like having a...
kinda like a father figure.
1124
01:01:55,294 --> 01:01:56,587
He was always very sober.
1125
01:01:58,005 --> 01:02:01,217
No, Allen Ginsberg
was anything but a father figure.
1126
01:02:02,635 --> 01:02:04,679
He was definitely not a father figure.
1127
01:02:05,221 --> 01:02:06,472
[Mansfield] Allen Ginsberg,
1128
01:02:06,556 --> 01:02:10,184
a guy I really-- I really miss,
of the ones that are gone.
1129
01:02:10,685 --> 01:02:13,855
We became very friendly,
I mean, you know, he-- he...
1130
01:02:14,147 --> 01:02:17,775
I wasn't a bad-looking, you know,
little 19-year-old at the time,
1131
01:02:17,859 --> 01:02:20,403
and he had a thing for straight,
1132
01:02:20,611 --> 01:02:21,571
talented...
1133
01:02:22,488 --> 01:02:23,364
um...
1134
01:02:23,990 --> 01:02:25,616
teenage boys. [chuckles]
1135
01:02:25,700 --> 01:02:27,744
So, that probably added to it, I suppose.
1136
01:02:27,827 --> 01:02:30,371
[jazz piano playing]
1137
01:02:34,500 --> 01:02:36,627
[older Dylan] One thing people
don't know about Ginsberg
1138
01:02:36,711 --> 01:02:38,337
is that he was an incredible dancer.
1139
01:02:38,421 --> 01:02:39,797
Um... who...
1140
01:02:39,881 --> 01:02:44,677
he would just do these steps
that were so unusual and exciting.
1141
01:02:44,761 --> 01:02:47,388
You know, and he'd always have
a good dance partner, too.
1142
01:02:47,472 --> 01:02:51,434
Uh, usually somebody from the tour,
somebody we'd pick up along the way.
1143
01:02:51,768 --> 01:02:54,187
Uh... He danced a lot, Ginsberg.
1144
01:02:54,771 --> 01:02:56,314
[applause]
1145
01:02:56,856 --> 01:02:59,609
[woman] "& shaman
he swings a skinny leg to the sky

& shaman's shouting yeah for you
& singing your sorrow

shaman does it for you you know all this

shaman's got his eyes on the violin."
1154
01:03:21,380 --> 01:03:23,925
[woman] There was this yearning,
Allen's yearning,
1155
01:03:24,509 --> 01:03:26,093
to either be Bob or...
1156
01:03:27,094 --> 01:03:29,013
have Bob love him more.
1157
01:03:29,096 --> 01:03:31,015
And I remember Bob saying,
1158
01:03:31,098 --> 01:03:33,226
"Just go out and sing
on the street corners."
1159
01:03:33,309 --> 01:03:34,811
So Allen was essentially doing that.92567
