BobTalk

This is a new song, recently recorded. (before Baby Stop Crying)

Thank you. This next song is the story of my life. (before Shelter From The Storm)

All right, thank you, Ballad Of A Thin Man! It was thirteen years ago I recorded that song. This is called I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm No More. I played this at the Newport Folk Festival, some time, recently. This is the song that got me booed off the stage. This is it. (before Maggie's Farm)

Thank you. This is a song I recorded with The Band a few years back. On one of my albums if you can find it. Anyway we're gonna take a break after this song. Gotta do some things backstage, with a telephone. OK, so we'll see you in about 5 minutes. (before Going, Going, Gone)

David Mansfield on the violin! I taught him how to play that. All right! (after All Along The Watchtower)

Thank you! All right! It gives me a great deal of pleasure to me and it also gives me a great deal of pleasure to play with this band. I think a whole lot of this band and I wanna introduce them to you now. On the guitar, on the rhythm guitar, right here is a man of great renown, Mr. Steven Soles. You'll be hearing more from him. All right, on the drums, Ian Wallace. I know some of you know him, give him a bigger hand than that, Ian Wallace. On the bass guitar, and you know how good he is, Jerry Scheff. All right, on the keyboards, Alan Pasqua. Lead guitar, Billy Cross. On the conga drums, from Detroit, Bobbye Hall. You met this young man here earlier this evening. Plays just about every thing and more, David Mansfield. On the tenor saxophone, I know you've been waiting to know who this man is, Mr. Steve Douglas. All right, on the background vocals tonight... all right, these girls make me cry every night. On the left, my fiancée Carolyn Dennis. On the right, this girl’s my cousin, my first cousin, Jo Ann Harris. And in the middle, my current girlfriend, Helena Springs. We're gonna do this now, recorded a few years back in New York City, called, It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

We're gonna do this one last tune, and as Jerry Garcia would say, “beat it on down the line". So, till we meet again. (before Forever Young)

Thank you. I hope this song means as much to you as it means to me. I really do. (before The Times They Are A-Changin')

Thank you! This is the story of my life, this next song. (Shelter From The Storm)

Slow down, on the tenor saxophone, Steve Douglas. On the background vocals, three young ladies break my heart every night, Carolyn Dennis. My cousin, Jo Ann Harris. And my very good friend, Helena Springs. I wrote and recorded this in New York a few years back called, It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

< ... > A private present to a friend of mine in the back. All right we're gonna get on down the road, and play you this last song before we go. It was a pleasure to be here tonight. Yes it was. I'm glad to say this song means as much to me as it does to you. So, till we meet again. (before Forever Young)

Thank you very much! I've been singing this one for fifteen years, so one more time. (before The Times They Are A-Changin’)

Thank you, Ballad Of A Thin Man! It was 15 years before Ballad Of Short People. This was called I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm No More. I played this at the Newport Folk Festival, some time recently. This is the song that got me booed off the stage. This is it.

Thank you. This is a song I recorded with The Band a few years back, on one of the albums we did together. Anyway, we're gonna take a break after this song. Have to do some things backstage, with a telephone. (before Going, Going, Gone)

David Mansfield over there on the violin. I taught him how to play that. All right! (before All I Really Want To Do)

Thank you, all right. It gives me a great deal of pleasure to play here. Also it gives me a great deal of pleasure to play with this band. I think a whole lot of this band and I wanna introduce them to you now. On the guitar, on the rhythm guitar, right here is a man of great renown, Mr. Steven Soles. You'll be hearing more from him.

This is a song I wrote a while back for a friend of mine. And she's in the house tonight so I'm gonna play it. (before To Ramona)

Thank you. All right, this is a new song we just recorded a few weeks ago called Baby Please Stop Crying.

Thank you! This is the story of my life, this next song. (before Shelter From The Storm)

Thank you! That was a song about a Ballad Of A Thin Man. I wrote that fifteen years before Ballad Of Short People. This is called Maggie's Farm. I Ain't Gonna Work On Maggie's Farm, No More. This is the song that got me in a lots of trouble.

Thank you. All right. We're gonna take a break now. Very important phone call to make. So, I recorded this song with The Band not too long ago. You may remember it. (before Going, Going, Gone)

Thank you! Careful with those matches now. You could burn the place down. All right, thank you! (after Blowin’ In the Wind)

Thank you. That was a song in reggae there. I'd like to dedicate this to the late, great Jimi Hendrix. (sings All Along The Watchtower) David Mansfield on violin! I taught him how to play that.

Thank you. From Kingston Jamaica, on the drums, Ian Wallace. From Panama City, Alan Pasqua on the keyboards. On the bass guitar, Jerry Scheff. Lead guitar, Billy Cross. On the conga drums, from Detroit, Bobbye Hall. On the rhythm guitar, step up Steven Soles! A great artist in his own right. He has no rights. On the mandolin and the violin, you've also seen him playing guitar, David Mansfield. We're gonna leave him here in England. On the saxophone, you've heard this man many times before, you probably don't know it. Steve Douglas. All right, on the background vocals tonight. I've been waiting all night to introduce these ladies. On the left, my current girlfriend, Carolyn Dennis. On the right, my childhood sweetheart for real, Jo Ann Harris. And in the middle, my fiancée Helena Springs. All right, we're gonna play this tune I recorded in New York City about 10 years ago called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

Thank you. All right. We're gonna head out now. I'm glad these songs mean as much to you as they mean to me. So, until we meet again. In a few weeks, ha ha. Actually I’ve been thinking of moving up to Liverpool. All right. (before Forever Young)

On the mandolin, violin, steel guitar , 6 string guitar, David Mansfield. On the tenor saxophone, a man you will no (…..), you remember, Mr. Steven Douglas. Yeah. On the conga drums from Detroit, Bobbye Hall. On the background vocals tonight. Lots of people say they sound like a group called The I-Threes. I'm not too familiar with that group. Or The Supremes, but they don't sound like The Supremes. They sound more like the old Raylettes. I wanna introduce them to you now. On the left my fiancée, Carolyn Dennis. On the right, my current girlfriend, Jo Ann Harris. And in the middle, my childhood sweetheart, taught me everything I know. Helena Springs. We gonna do this song recorded a few years back in New York City. Called It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding.

All right. It’s time for us to go. Time for that part of the evening again. So I’ll leave you with this one last tune. (before Forever Young)

Thank you. All right. This is a song I been doing for quite a few years now. I recorded this about fifteen years ago as a matter of fact. (before The Times They Are A-Changin’)

Thank you. Goodnight. I hope these songs mean as much to you as they do to me. Goodnight. (after The Times They Are A-Changin’)
