0:00.0 | You know when I'm all alone in the greater new. |
0:13.0 | You know what I was just listening to was, have you ever seen the recording of |
0:18.0 | Restless Farewell that Dylan recorded in Toronto in 1964 where he's kind of on a TV set |
0:24.5 | and he's doing a strummed version of Restless Farewell. No, no, I haven't. Tell me about it. |
0:28.3 | I don't know. Because we watched Masted Anonymous. Spoiler, that's the movie we're talking about. Bob Dylan, |
0:32.8 | Maston Anonymous folks. Wait for it. I don't know. As well as waiting for you i was just like putting on some of my |
0:37.6 | favorite dylan tracks on youtube because i uh i don't use spotify listen to music on youtube like a sicko |
0:43.7 | and uh yeah one of my favorite dylan recordings is uh yeah restless farewell he played as the last |
0:50.4 | song in his set so as the you know the credits start to roll while he's playing it, I'm forgetting the |
0:55.6 | name of the program, but it was a 60s CBC program. I think it's about a half hour performance. |
1:00.2 | I think you can also see the rest of the performance on YouTube. I think it represents the best |

1:17.1 | But anyway, you don't even know the performance I'm talking about. |
1:19.9 | So never mind. I tweeted it out. You can check it out after. |
1:22.4 | I will. It is something about Bob Dylan where every song has infinite multiverses. There are so many different |
1:29.0 | versions and the album version really just captures it at one moment in time. I mean, one famous |
1:34.4 | example is his version of Joker Man that's on Infidels. You know, it's all right. But when he |
1:39.6 | performed it on Late Night with David Letterman, he had this backing band of like two guys who he'd never |
1:45.2 | performed with before, never performed with after. And it's a famously great performance. It's famously so |
1:51.6 | much better than the version on the album. And in fact, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, |
1:56.8 | but there's a version in this movie, Masked and Anonymous, of Blowing in the Wind that plays in |
