  • This was recorded at De Montfort Hall in Leicester, England on May 2, 1965. I already uploaded the audio (which is, along with most of the other tracks from the Leicester show, on the playlist titled "Leicester, UK 1965"), but I thought this unforgettable performance deserved a music video.
    Bobby's 1965 England Tour has some of the best live versions of his songs ever, and most were recorded right off the soundboard for the documentary "Don't Look Back." I managed to get my hands on all of the known recordings, and will be posting many more to come.
    Enjoy this gem while you can!

      I saw him about the same time, maybe a couple months earlier. I saw him in Troy, NY just outside Albany. He was playing stuff from Bringing It All Back Home. It was a small venue, small audience. He was amazing. A tiny figure in black, working his way through these songs that were unlike anything I'd heard before.

    this song is so pertinent today. I've listened to this song a thousand times over the past 40 years, and still feel pain. Maybe hearing this song when I was a boy of 10 made me a little better of a man at 60. There is only one race, the human race.

    Hattie Carroll was a black woman who died as the result of an injury she got at a white only party in Maryland when one of the guests beat her with his cane because she poured his bourbon too slowly.
    an early version of an ally using their celebrity to shed light on the injustices imposed upon black people in America. When I was young, my mom told me about this song one day while she was playing a Bob Dylan album. I've been a fan ever since. Without Bob writing this song, the case would've never received national and international attention.
    Most of his music was about the people who hold up this pyramid scheme of capitalism.

    My goodness, I'm delighted to read such wonderful comments about b dylan. An amazing song..perfect. But ya know, there are quite a few wonderful videos... Did you ever see the CBC production called QUEST? It'll knock you out. It's about 1965, little b and w film . It takes place in a tiny hunting type lodge or bar. Dylan is the wandering troubadour going from table to table with about 4 at a table. The men are playing cards. Gradually they begin to Listen. Hattie Carroll is the 1st 🎵 ..as I recall. As they listen, their poker cards are substituted for little journals. Some men are now writing as you see them in quiet contemplation.
    This hunting bar has been transformed.
    B dylan is confident and serious throughout his singing.
    I learned that night that he loves his words, his music and performing.
    He is "The Song and Dance Man " till this day.
    Btw, I have never heard ... even once.. a flat note.
    His pitch is spot on...till this day.

    i first heard this song in the movie when i was fifty-one years old and it really punched me in the heart. the first time i heard it, it thought he was saying, "who had ten children, who never sat once at the head of the table." i thought he was saying her children never sat once at the head of the table, which actually made it more devastatingly poignant. I seriously wondered how a kid that age could write something that profound and wise beyond his years. the mistake in that movie were there were so few complete songs--it's okay to see what bob said backstage but the thing would be to have as many of his complete songs as possible. in retrospect, this was the best thing he ever did on video and the knucklehead cameraman only recorded half of a song here or there. the other thing he did worth looking at was Concert for Bangladesh with George Harrison, which did have whole songs.

    This Bob Dylan story is misleading:
    William Zanzinger did not beat Hattie Carroll to death. He was drunk. He beat the people around him with a stick, including his wife. Hattie did not suffer serious injury. She just reacted very badly to the assault. Because she had had previous heart problems and high blood pressure, she over-reacted, resulting in her death.

    • @SwinginPig
      @SwinginPig  4 роки тому +9

      Athena Minerva Dylan’s sequence of events might’ve not been completely accurate, but William Zantzinger (real name) certainly deserved this song and certainly deserved more jail time for her death. He most definitely caused it, as her brain hemorrhage likely would not have occurred if it wasn’t for him. It’s a complicated moral debate on whether he should’ve been convicted for manslaughter (which he was) or murder though.

    • @SwinginPig
