Selected BobTalk

Get off the couch, get yourself a bowl of water, and heel. (intro)

Here's a record that everyone always talks about when they talk about how dull radio was before rock and roll. Personally, I don't agree with them; I think Patty Page made beautiful records.

It's a shame he didn't have more success as a singer, because the few records that he did make rocked like nobody's business (about Ronnie Self).

A stupendously expressive singer (about Howard Tate).

 

Notes.

The song Dog has words by Lawrence Ferlinghetti.

Mighty Sparrow is also known as Slinger Francisco.

The session location is fictional. The actual recording location and date for Bob Dylan’s contribution are not known.

Official release

Released as a bonus CD together with the limited Deluxe Edition of Together Through Life:
Theme Time Radio Hour With Your Host Bob Dylan. This Week’s Show: Friends & Neighbors, Sony Music, 27 April 2009.

 

Selected BobTalk

They say that good fences make good neighbors and good friends make good music (intro).

A powerful force of nature, a guitar playin', singin' evangelist...Anything but ordinary and plain. She was a big, good lookin' woman, and divine. Not to mention sublime and splendid, always dressed like she was on her way to church, with that electric guitar strung across her shoulder. Matter of fact I saw her a few times myself, at the National Guard Armory (about Sister Rosetta Tharpe).

Long and tall and on the ball (about T-Bone Burnett).

Here's another Texan…I guess Texas is a friendly place. Moon's combination of pumpin' piano and country vocals were a huge influence on Jerry Lee Lewis.

He once heard Little Walter play, and it changed his life forever. Music used to do that (about Jerry McCain).

I played this record - Let's Invite Them Over - for some of the guys here in the Abernathy building, and they couldn't believe their ears. This is country music at its best, friends. Give a listen! Now I love country music, but I say ‘What happened to it?' You hear a song like this and it's obvious it's about real people, and real emotions, and real problems, that's all, that's the country music we learned to love. Nowadays they want to sweep all the problems under the rug and pretend they don't exist. Well guess what folks – they do exist! And if you try and sweep em under the rug, they're just gonna pop up somewhere else. So we might as well all just face it and listen to the old style country music, the real country music. You know, about drinking and sleeping around. That's my kind a country music, and I hope yours! But I digress.

This next song is entirely without flaw and meets all the supreme standards of excellence (about My Friends).

I could be here all day just sayin' songs Carole King wrote. I'd rather listen to her sing one.

Another true zombie tale from the swamps of New Orleans (about Bad Neighborhood).

Here's my old pals the Rolling Stones. And I guess you heard about Keith and everybody's glad he's feeling better now. Here he is with Charlie, Mick, Woody, and a bass player.

One of the greatest songwriters who ever lived was Hank Williams, of course. Hank could be headstrong and willful, a backslider and a reprobate, no stranger to bad deeds. However, underneath all of that, he was compassionate and moralistic.

“We don't need any border patrols, or people trying to pigeon hole music. We just need more records like this (about Why Can't We Be Friends).

 

Notes.

“Good fences make good neighbors” is a quote from the poem “Mending wall” by Robert Frost.

27 April 2006, Richards, while in Fiji, suffered a head injury after falling down from a palm tree; he subsequently underwent cranial surgery at a New Zealand hospital.

The session location is fictional. The actual recording location and date for Bob Dylan’s contribution are not known.

The session date here is the original broadcast date.

Mr. announcer who are you?

Bob: Howdy everybody! This is Bob Dylan

Tell me the station I'm listening to

Bob: The xm network, satellite radio

How about telling a time to meet?

Bob: It's time for theme time radio hour

And what's the weather gonna be?

Bob: It's cold and fatty and it's raining. It's going down to 30 degrees tonight. I don't know what it's like where you are but that's what it's like here.

Selected BobTalk

What would the radio be without a disc jockey? (intro)

Our next song is all about radio stations that cropped up just across the Mexican border. These stations did not have to obey the same laws as their American counterparts. They were able to broadcast deep into the United States. These stations were very influential, playing a lot of regional bands of all types of music. In this song the blasters pay tribute to these early hothouses of modern music. (about Border Radio).

Here's a song that is anything but perfunctory….The Clash, a group that knew about the political power of the radio.

Van Morrison has always had a love affair with the radio. A lot of his songs mention it, and this one is one of the best.

Selected BobTalk

For the next hour we're gonna be playin' music about Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus and Numbers, Deuteronomy, Joshua, Judges, The Wisdom of Solomon, First Maccabees and Second Maccabees, First Samuel and Second Samuel, First Kings, Second Kings. We're gonna be playing stuff that comes out of the Psalms and the Proverbs. You know all of these. Jonah and Malachi – how come nobody's named Malachi any more? We're gonna be playing music that has something to do with Nehemia, Esther, Job, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. And of course, The Book of Revelations. So gather the family around the radio and hear the good news. Seek and you shall find. (intro)

If you have to choose between the bottle and a bible, you might be needing a 12 Step Program, which was started by Bill Wilson, who helped spread the idea that drinking was a disease. If you feel 12 steps aren't enough for ya, may I recommend the Alfred Hitchcock Classic, The 39 Steps. If you have to go higher than 39 steps just remember, one might be too many, and a hundred might not be enough.

Like a lot of other street performers, he always put gospel songs in among his blues to make it harder for the police to interrupt him. (about Rev. Gary Davis).

He was a pioneering gospel performer of the 20's. Recorded only 18 songs but, boy, what songs! (about Washington Phillips).

If you listened closely to that song you might have heard Claude Jeter say, ‘I'll be your bridge over deep water, if you trust in my name' – a phrase that inspired Paul Simon, a few years later, to write some song. (about Oh Mary Don't You Weep).

Biblical in scope, rhythm and blues in nature. This is the kind of bible study you don't get in Sunday school...And what's a rhythm and blues gospel song without a vibraphone solo, that one probably played by Johnny Otis. (about That's What The Good Book Says).

Selected BobTalk

This is one o f those songs that starts off with a prelude; so don't be concerned, the body of the song will start in just a moment (about I've Been Everywhere).

Sometimes when you're in the basement, looking at a box of records to buy, you come across a name on a label and you just have to own it. That's the way I felt when I first saw this one...Here's a song that should be the state song for Louisiana.

A vivid western saga laden with drama, violence, and romance, a song of rare beauty and elegance. Talkin' about a woman who is as different from other women as cognac is from corn liquor. But as Marty Robbins would no you get the same kind of headache from either one.

You all know this song, and it always sounds good (about Kansas City).

One of the top pre-Bop trombonists (about Jack Teagarden).

Hillbilly music had no shortage of lust, murder, and mayhem, of course it didn't have as many samples from Herbie Hancock records, but I think if you listen to this you'll be surprised how violent it is (about Knoxville Girl, Bob's response to email questioning a comparison between Hillbilly music' and Gangsta Rap).

Had one of the most distinctive voices in R & B, and he was shockingly handsome...Percy's records have never been equalled.

I'm all outta breath just listening to that! (about My Head's in Mississippi).

Here on Theme Time Radio Hour we believe you can never play too much Bob Wills. We're gonna prove it by playin' another one of his records.

Listen to the piano playing on this record, it just pushes the thing along. Without the piano the guitar player might as well drop out (about School of Rock n' Roll).

On the way to the studio I almost hit a telephone operator with my car. It was a close call. (intro).

He was called “Cleanhead” cause he burned all his hair off with a hair-straightener. The first time I heard this song it knocked my socks off!

Jumpin' Jehoshaphat You don't hear records like that anymore! (about As Soon as I Hang Up the Phone).

The distinctive voice of Aaron Neville, a lot of people think we sing the same!

A giraffe can go a very long time without water. But he wants to see a menu right away. (intro).

It's called Part 1 because back in the days of 78's if you had a song longer than three minutes you had to split it up on side one and side two, because the records only were three minutes long. So you only did a long song when you had something important to say, like this song about the most destructive river flood in United States history.

We heard about cool, clear water before, but the water Porter Wagoner sings about is colder and darker.

Along with Son House and Charley Patton, no one was more important to the development of Delta Blues than Tommy Johnson. And long before the stories about Robert Johnson selling his soul at the crossroads, those same stories were being told about Tommy Johnson. His live performances where he would play guitar behind his neck, while hollerin' the blues at full volume, were legendary...Tommy only recorded until 1930, but he was still performing as late as 1956..seems a shame we never got to hear some of them later performances.

Lonnie's a real interesting character. He recorded solo blues numbers, he also recorded jazz guitar, as early as 19 and 27…but time passes on, and even as great a talent as Lonnie Johnson can be forgotten. By the late 50's, he was toiling as a hotel janitor when he was rediscovered and had a major comeback on the folk blues festival trail.

One of the last authentic swing singers in the Kansas City tradition (about Myra Taylor).

At the age of 6 he got in trouble for touching a neighbors guitar. His dad saw how much he loved it and worked day and night so that he could buy him a 3 dollar and 50 cent guitar. Turns out it was a good investment. That guitar became his best friend and he made some rockin' music on it (about Glenn Barber).
