Description
A SONG WRITTEN BY BOB DYLAN AND ACTOR BEN CARRUTHERS. THE PERFORMANCE IS CREDITED TO "BEN CARRUTHERS & THE DEEP". THIS GUY WAS IN "THE DIRTY DOZEN" AND INTRODUCED NICO TO DYLAN IN PARIS. ALL THIS YOU DON'T NEED TO KNOW.
THE "A" IS A BIT LIKE THE WHO MEETS DYLAN. MORE FOR THE SHEL TALMY SOUND THAN ANYTHING ELSE. IT'S A GOOD DYLAN SONG BUT COMES OUT SOUNDING LIKE A TOP GARAGE/PHSYCH TRAK THAN FOLK ROCK.
THE "B", "RIGHT BEHIND YOU" WAS WRITTEN BY CARRUTHERS. AFTER A VOCAL INTRO A JAZZ MOOD IS SET BY DRUMS, BASS AND PIANO. IT IS A BIT LEFT FIELD IN CONSTRUCTION BUT WORKS. ESPECIALLY THE ROCK GUITAR(WHO DID TALMY USE FOR THIS?) AND ORGAN.
THE BAD NEWS IS, IT IS NOT THE BEST RECORD I HAVE CONDITION WISE. THE "A" HAS HAD A STICKER REMOVED LEAVING A BLISTER BELOW THE RECORD NUMBER ON THE "A" LABEL(SEE PHOTO). THE VINYL HAS ABOUT HALF A DOZEN(6) SCTRATCHES THAT ARE VISIBLE, APART FROM THE PAPER SCRATCHES. THESE ARE NOT DEEP BUT DO DETRACT FROM THE LOOK OF THE DISC ALTHOUGH DON'T SOUND. IT DOES HAVE AN AUDIBLE CRACKLE WHICH IS NOT SO NOTICIBLE AFTER ABOUT A THIRD THE WAY IN. ALTHOUGH NOTICIBLE INITIALLY IT DOES LET THE RECORD COME THRU AND DOES NOT BURY THE SOUND OF THE RECORD. THE "B" HAS 4 OR 5 VERY LIGHT SCRATCHES WHICH DO NOT SOUND AND ANY SURFACE NOISE IS NOT NOTICIBLE WITH THE MUSIC. I WOULD RATE THE CONDITION AS GOOD.
THE RECORD CAME OUT '65 ON PARLAPHONE, R 5295.
