Hi mikefitznb, I agree 100% I'm 73 and still believe (in my head) that I'm 25 😆 Those were glory days, beautiful music and beautiful people, oh how I wish we could go back there! 🤗
@@paulhagger3895 We are still forbidden to mingle in too many places, though the segregation is much better hidden and much more clever. Black men were railroaded into prison or an early grave, then and now. Much has changed for the better, much still needs to be changed.
@@paulhagger3895no, of course not. But racism was RAMPANT, and it wasn't the microaggressions, like today, it was the full on, socially acceptable, use of the. N-Word by whites. I grew up in Jersey, and cops havent changed. They hated Rubin Carter, considered his career as a boxer as "uppity" and weren't to keen on him beating white boxers. It's true that many hippies identified with the civil rights movement, especially when they used respectability politics. But when that gave way to Black Power, middle America felt threatened because, again, racism. Dylan used this song to help the movement to get Hurricane Carter a retrial. He got one but it still didn't help but eventually he was granted a third retrial and was released, an early win for the innocence project. I believe it was Denzel Washington who played carter in the film, the hurricane, but unfortunately, this song was not on the soundtrack
Yes, He could have been champion..He was top 5 ranked by the WBC and was ready for a title shot when he was arrested, set up by 2 dirty cops. After he was aquitted, he sued the state and won a big $$ settlement...The Jury gave his potential career ring earnings and time of false imprisonment strong consideration Big props to Dylan for this song, it inspired many celebrities to also take up his cause and demand Carters release.
For those who don't know, the "He ain't no Gentleman Jim" line is a reference to Gentleman Jim Corbett, a famous boxer in the late 1800s and early 1900s, considered by many to be the father of modern boxing, with his more technical approach.
When Dylan wrote and recorded this song, very few believed in Carter's innocence. Most in the public did not hear that there were many inconsistencies in the police officers stories. They were framed to clear others, and most wanted the two dead. Yet there were some who realized things said by the police did not make sense. It took decades before Carter was finally cleared.
Oh, Sarah- seeing you hear this brings it back to life for me so much! I first heard it in 1976 and it grabbed me. But seeing you listen and get it and appreciate it makes my day all over again! Thank you, Sister. We are all One. ❤ And thanks to Bob- such a Genius! He even found that violinist as she crossed the street one day!
That violin adds so much to this and other sins in this album. Scarlet Rivera was a street musician that Dylan heard playing in NYC. He invited her to the recording studio and she played most of the songs on the album, "Desire" and he took her on tour with his band. Dylan was famous for wanting authentic musicians on his albums rather than perfect ones.
@@jhonnygladstone4631 No he wasn't. He was granted release pending a new trial because of irregularities in his original trial. The government decided not to retry him because of all the national hoopla concerning the case. Did you know that while on his release from prison he brutally attacked the woman who was leading his campaign for a new trial? He also had previously served 10 years in prison for another assault .
@@stevenmeyer9674 yes I wrote only Unlucky. IMO he is innocent even if in legal terms he was granted. I hope the real history will arise 1 day. Greetings
As real as it gets. The impact of songs like this are a big part of why he got a Nobel Prize. This song, Blowing in the Wind, The Times Are A Changin', are a big part of his legacy. And then another song so many have covered, best by Adele-'Make You Feel My Love'. He has absolutely huge playlist...
My favorite song by one of my favorite artists. We need more serious, pissed off protest music like this that inspires people. And I love the fact that the incredible violin player was a student Dylan met crossing the street in Manhattan and invited her to play with him.
This song opens the remarkable 1976 Desire album, which features some of Bob's greatest singing, and the wonderful band that became the nucleus of the Rolling Thunder Revue touring band: Guam. Scarlett Rivera's violin distinguishes the album musically, but Howie Wyeth (drums) and Rob Stoner (bass) create a compelling and distinct sound. The "Hurricane" storytelling harkens back to Bob's early work when he wrote so many brilliant stories about social injustice: the likes of "Oxford Town," "The Ballad Of Hollis Brown," "North Country Blues," and his classic, "The Lonesome Death Of Hattie Carroll." I'd love to hear your reaction to the latter, Sarah, or perhaps his incomparable "A Hard Rain's A- Gonna Fall."
This was one of Bob Dylan's greatest hits yet not many people play it. I remember when it first came out I had to buy the single that day I went to town and bought it. In fact, I've still got it. I guess they don't want to be reminded that prejudices were that bad in those days.
Prejudice is still the same. Example; the unofficial government attacks on coloured people during the Trump presidency, the continuing police murder of black people in the USA. The US is in not the only place with racism, but it is the prime example. We need to do better.
Consider this was a heavy weight boxer at the prime of his life. Now, consider the many innocent Black persons, who had no weight behind them, at all, and who suffered this crime committed by police, against them ... how many still suffer behind bars.
@@noother964 Yeah, but it DID bring attention to not only Carter's plight, but the plight of many black men in this country at that time. Just sayin'...🤔
What a great reaction video Sarah. Actually Dylan wrote the song "Sara" about his biggest love. You might want to check it out. The Hurricane story is real and Dylan put a spotlight on Ruben. But it was a group of lawyers, fighting for innocent prisoners, that got Ruben out years later.
Yes, it''s a true story. There is a film starring Denzel Washington I believe. That violin played in fiddle style is wonderful. You need to listen to "One more cup of coffee". I guarantee that you will like it. It may be on the same album, I'm not sure. I started listening to Bob Dylan around 1962. He has totally formed my attitude towards other ethnic groups for my entire life. The man is a genius. He utterly deserves his Nobel prize for literature. Enjoy your videos thanks.
Think about it from the DA’s standpoint. He takes down some average street thug, nobody will really notice. But you take down the #1 middleweight contender in the world, well that can put a man’s career on the fast track.
Listen to similar "Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll" "Masters of War" "John Brown" "Death of Emmett Till" ... these are the tip of the ice berg... it would take a life time to listen to this man's contribution both on albums and on the live stage. He's unique a one off, irreplaceable, the likes of whom we will never see again, he is still touring .. keep on keeping on Bobby.
🥊🥊Ruban Hurricane Carter was a boxer hauled in for being on the NJ streets when a murder occured the cops saw him out training and arrested him do to skin color!
I've been a Huge Boxing fan my whole life. Ruben Carter was a Good fighter, he actually did fight like a "Hurricane". Personally I don't believe he ever would have won the Middle Weight Championship but he definitely had a chance to fight for it. I've seen him fight several times. He was eventually released from prison thanks to the help of a Canadian family who adopted a young black teen. They happened across Ruben's story and was instrumental in his eventual release. In the song Bob mentioned that "he ain't no Gentleman Jim". I could tell you noticed that line. Gentleman Jim was James J. Corbett, a Heavyweight Champion from the 1800s. He was White very popular at the time. They made a movie about him too. I would watching "Hurricane" the movie starring Denzel Washington. ❤️❤️😄🥴🤔😘
Bob has a lot of "Story" type songs in his catalog. "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts" is a great one. "Black Diamond Bay" is another. I could go on and on, but please Beautiful try Bob's song entitled "Bob Dylan's 115th Dream". It's a Great Story and Hilarious Too, you'll Love it. 🤔🥴😘🤣❤️🥰
@@mikerichards67 I agree. But it's hard to put a favorite on any of Bob's albums. I think my favorite is "Planet Waves". The writing on the back of the Album includes comments like "space guys with big dicks and Ducktails". Have ever Read Bob's book called "Tarantula? Quite the Reading. Take care. 🤔🤩
It's classic Dylan. I don't know that this would be one I've have recommended for you to sample. Not because you're not a big girl. But it is a sad and negative story. I'll watch your response.
The Violinest is Scarlett O'Hara. She was playing on the streets of New York City when Bob met her. He asked her to join his 1975-76 Tour called the Rolling Thunder Revue, the rest is history. 🤔🥴😄❤️ Love You Beautiful. 😄❤️❤️

This song is about Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, a boxer who spent 19 years in jail for a murder Dylan felt he did not commit. Carter's case is complex and filled with legal missteps. On June 17, 1966, three white people were gunned down at a bar in Paterson, New Jersey called the Lafayette Grill. Witnesses described two black men as the murderers; police pulled over Carter and his friend John Artis, who were black, but otherwise didn't fit the description of the killers. They were released, and Carter resumed his boxing career, losing a fight on August 6, but two months later he and Artis were charged with the murders. The case hinged on the testimony of Arthur Bradley and Alfred Bello, two white men with criminal records who claimed they were en route to rob a factory when they witnessed the shooting, and that Carter and Artis were the killers. Carter was sentenced to 30 years to life; Artis got 15 to life; Bradley and Bello got reduced sentences for their crimes.
This story was given to Dylan directly from Carter's point of view.. Dylan eventually stopped performing it when he realized he was l likely being conned by Carter, who most experts thought was guilty all along.
@@KevinMackey-p4b I Dylan wrote the song after hearing only Carter's personal account of what did or didn't happen. As time went on, Dylan started to doubt Carter's story. and never publicly performed the song again. The reason Carter was never retried was the government knew they could never get a conviction, because of all the publicity. even though everyone involved with the case was convinced he was guilty. Carter was a thug a who served ten years in prison for a previous crime. He also physically attacked and knocked unconscious the woman who was leading the campaign to get him pardoned from the murder. All this information is on the net and very easy to find.
Bob Dylan is a great musician but he got this one wrong. Rubin Carter was a vicious murderer whose career as a boxer had peaked. And when he was out on bail during his second trial he beat a woman who was one of his supporters and put her in the hospital. Decent men don't do that.
