Lyrics going home mindmapped including cross reference to Dylan’s Can’t wait. Strange line ‘a brief elaboration of a tube’ interpreted. Great song, great CD.

What was Dylan doing when he was 27. A look into Dylan’s diary of 1968.
Flim-flam
According to this very silly promo film (click on screen to watch film on YouTube) for Dylan’s mono mix “stereo is flim-flam”, because you may have two ears, but you only have one brain. Ever heard about left and right brain? Anyway this film surely is a no-brainer. Is that the reason why it won’t play anymore on bobdylan.com?
Isn’t it strange that we are listening to Dylan in mono? Of course the sound is gorgeous. But what went wrong with the stereo mix? Why was stereo the last “invention” in sound production? Yes, we had quadraphonic, but it died a premature death. Although Dylan in quad is treat.
But finally, there is a new innovation: 3D60. It is a new sound production process created to deliver an immersive, three-dimensional listening experience to headphones. A 360 degree surround sound. If you listen to music made in 3D60 (on ordinary headphones) you hear sounds coming from all around; in front, behind, at different heights and even from overhead or below.
3D 60 is developed by Mike Brady, the Jam’s live sound engineer and music video director, musician and multimedia producer Ian Thompson, and music producer Youth. The new CD by Orb (featuring David Gilmour), metallic spheres has been made in 3D60.
I always wondered who is the guy behind Dylan on the sleeve of Highway 61. Why is he carrying a camera? And where is the picture taken? You too? Record Collector (november issue) has the answers in a feature article ‘the making of Highway 61 revisited’. Daniel Kramer took the picture, surprisingly two months before the recording of the album. Kramer and Dylan spent a whole day in New York shooting pictures eventually ending up at the apartment of Albert Grossman. Dylan is sitting on the steps to this apartment holding his glasses in his right hand. Because he didn’t like the composition he asked Neuwirth to stand behind Dylan. Kramer: “The shirt added colour to the picture”. To add “balance to the picture”, he gave Neuwirth his camera to carry. I always thought this as one of the best album sleeves in history.
