She's got everything she needs,
She's an artist, she don't look back.
She's got everything she needs,
She's an artist, she don't look back.
She can take the dark out of the nighttime
And paint the daytime black.
You will start out standing
Proud to steal her anything she sees.
You will start out standing
Proud to steal her anything she sees.
But you will wind up peeking through her keyhole
Down upon your knees.
She never stumbles,
She's got no place to fall.
She never stumbles,
She's got no place to fall.
She's nobody's child,
The Law can't touch her at all.
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks.
She wears an Egyptian ring
That sparkles before she speaks.
She's a hypnotist collector,
You are a walking antique.
Bow down to her on Sunday,
Salute her when her birthday comes.
Bow down to her on Sunday,
Salute her when her birthday comes.
For Halloween give her a trumpet
And for Christmas, buy her a drum.
PRODUCERS' NOTE
About the audio: The producers have collected every known recording made during Bob Dylan's 1966 tour. The tour began on February 4th, 1966 in the U.S. and continued in North America until the beginning of April. Thereafter, the show moved to Australia, the Nordic countries and the British Isles.
None of the shows were professionally recorded during the early months of the tour. What survives and what is represented here are roughly made audience recordings. Starting on May 1st, Dylan's sound engineer, Richard Alderson, recorded large parts of every show on a carefully adjusted, portable tape recorder. Although the quality is quite good, these recordings are taken directly from the mixing board - the same audio mix that would be played over the PA system in the local venues. Consequently, those tapes will have louder vocals and sound drier, with less hall ambiance than a live recording made for record release.
Columbia Records recorded 4 shows: Sheffield, Manchester and London (2 shows) for the purpose of a live album. Recording rock 'n' roll live was brand new for the Columbia engineers and the resulting recordings vary greatly in sound quality. The vocals on the lectric set of the Sheffield recordings are so distorted that the producers of this release decided to use the audio from the mixing board instead.
About the sequencing: The shows here are presented in chronological order, with the exception of those recordings in which the audio quality is so degraded that the sound detracts from the overall listening experience. These five shows (White Plains, Pittsburgh, Hempstead, Melbourne, Stockholm) are presented at the very end of this collection.
