Bob Dylan - Mr. Tambourine Man (RARE LIVE FOOTAGE) [Liverpool, England 1965]

  • This is, shockingly, the ONLY known footage of Mr. Tambourine Man taken on Dylan's 1965 UK tour. The only other live video taken of Mr. Tambourine Man in 1965 was at the Newport Folk Festival. One can only wonder why D.A. Pennebaker decided not to use any footage taken of the song in "Don't Look Back."
    The footage of Mr. Tambourine Man is credited to Elston Gunn, a fellow Dylan UA-camr. In the original version, however, the audio was low quality and the picture was very distorted. I edited the visuals to to make it more watchable (although I hope to come across a better quality version someday) and overdubbed it with the original soundboard recording released on the collector's edition of The Cutting Edge. I also filled the last couple minutes with miscellaneous concert footage taken the same year. It took a long time to edit this one, so I hope everyone enjoys it!

    Love the howling, nebulous cathedral version from '66 but this is a treat. I took this song literally and have been on a quest all my life, the eternal student, always learning, nosing around, escaping on the run. A song of the human spirit. Robin Witting England

    Thanks for this. I was at this gig. I was a student at Cardiff. Hitched up to Liverpool with a few friends. Was an amazing experience. I remember him singing 'Talkin World War III Blues' - tweaking the lyrics eg from "It was Rockaday Johnny, singing..." to "It was Donovan - whoever Donovan is..". Watching and listening to this little chap, alone on stage with his guitar, a stool to carry the glass of water in which he placed his harmonicas, and this amazing voice which haunted me for the rest of my life. You knew way back then you were witnessing something special. I remember it as if yesterday. Seen him many times since. Each time is memorable. Thanks.

    I saw Dylan perform in Seattle in '64 or '65 when I was about 15, and a few years later after "Blonde on Blonde" came out. My only firm memory from that first concert is his performance of "It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding", which was riveting, to say the least. Is that Joan Baez sitting in the shadows behind him onstage? Is the audio of this performance still available to purchase anywhere on any CD? Thank you for bringing this to UA-cam, and for all the fine editing work. This song, this performance is kind of Exhibit A for the argument that Dylan richly deserved that Nobel Prize in literature.

    In 1965, as part this same tour, he did 2 shows for the BBC. Both were broadcast on consecutive Saturday evenings in July of that year. Unfortunately the BBC either lost or destroyed the tapes, never to be seen again. This takes me right back to that time when I was lucky enough to see the shows at the age of 14. It was my first glimpse of Dylan and I was totally enthralled.

I went looking quite a few years ago and found a guy who had recorded them from his cable tv link in 65 and he sent them all to me.

It was fabulous but not a place for sentiment. Anyone going along expecting to hear the "old stuff" the way he used to do it would be sorely disappointed. He did some older material but with completely different arrangments.I should have done this many years ago.

FOr sure he didnt film that complete. I have to FIND my DVD of the Pennebaker outtakes--and hope it will load into the laptop to see if My version is clean./ I know it was in EXX quality what I had.

    The wife took me to New York for my 60th. Did some research to find out where The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan album cover was photographed. Jones Street, Greenwich Village. That was it, had to go there are get photographed in Bobs footsteps. Long story short, i got my photo taken in Jones Street....muchos glee. Got home and compared my photos with the album, something was wrong......wrong end of Jones Street. It's only 437ft long and i got it wrong. If you have the same idea, it's the end where the Slaughtered Lamb pub is. I have to go back.

    Dylan achieved some sort of perfection in 1965 using just guitar, harmonica, and his voice. He HAD to do something different to go further in his artistic journey - just how far he (and we) would discover in the following 60+ years.

    My favourite version of this incredible song, which he had written for his 1964 album Another Side Of, but recorded it on my favourite Dylan album, Bringing It all back home, is the one he sings on the 1975 Rolling Thunder Revue. On that tour he just capture's Tambourine Man so majestically. I love this version, and it's a privelage to see it. Why haven't the Bootleg Series released his Acoustic 1965 tours. They would be much better than the Live In 1964 Halloween concert.

    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
    Vanished from my hand
    Left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleeping
    My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet
    I have no one to meet
    And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
    My senses have been stripped
    My hands can't feel to grip
    My toes too numb to step
    Wait only for my boot heels to be wandering
    I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
    Into my own parade
    Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
    It's not aimed at anyone
    It's just escaping on the run
    And but for the sky there are no fences facing
    And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
    To your tambourine in time
    It's just a ragged clown behind
    I wouldn't pay it any mind
    It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
    And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
    Down the foggy ruins of time
    Far past the frozen leaves
    The haunted frightened trees
    Out to the windy beach
    Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
    Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky
    With one hand waving free
    Silhouetted by the sea
    Circled by the circus sands
    With all memory and fate
    Driven deep beneath the waves
    Let me forget about today until tomorrow
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
    I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
    Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
