Ik ken deze dame met haar uitstekend band nu zo,n 10 jaar. Ze maakt prachtige ,een soort alternatieve country songs,vertolkt door een mooie ,wat aparte stem.Nog een reden om te concerten van Eilen te bezoeken is gitarist Jerry Miller.Een meester op de gitaar ,enorm vingervlug,vooral tijdens de uptempo nummers gaat hij soms heerlijk los.Echtgenoot Jason Beek verzorgt het drumwerk en vocals, en de stuwende contra bas is van Shawn Supra

Zo ongeveer om de twee jaar steekt ze de oceaan wel een keer over voor en bezoek aan Europa.
Als ze Nederland  of Belgie aandoet (wat meestal wel het geval is)ben ik indien mogelijk wel een keer van de partij).Deze keer moesten we richting Rotterdam,naar het mooie theater De Lantaren ,praktisch onder de Erasmusbrug.

Dat Eilen Jewell in Nederland een behoorlijke fanbase heeft opgebouwd bleek wel ,een zo goed als uitverkochte zaal.Het werd een heerlijk optreden,veel bekende en vertrouwde nummers ,ook veel werk van het laatste album .Prachtig zaalgeluid en belichting.

Naast haar eigen werk ook covers van o.a  Lorreta Lynn (Deep  as your pocket),Eric Andersen(Dusty Box Car Wall),Memphis Minny(Nothing In Ramblin),Big Maybelle (Don,t Leave Poor Me),Sleepy John Estes(Drop Down Mama) en Bessy Smith (If You catch Me Stealing),en dan ben ik er vast nog een paar vergeten.Gelukkig stond mijn persoonlijke favoriet "Sea Of Tears"ook op de setlist.

Bob Dylan Live at Continental Airlines Arena, East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA Saturday, 13th November 1999

Weer een mooie verassing in mijn mailbox vanmorgen,prachtopnames van Bob uit 1999.
Elston 1969,mijn dank is groot!


Song to Woody
This was written for folk-music legend Woody Guthrie, who was a huge influence on Dylan. Dylan sang it to him while Guthrie was on his hospital deathbed.

I'm out here a thousand miles from my home,
Walkin' a road other men have gone down.
I'm seein' your world of people and things,
Your paupers and peasants and princes and kings.

Hey, hey Woody Guthrie, I wrote you a song
'Bout a funny ol' world that's a-comin' along.
Seems sick an' it's hungry, it's tired an' it's torn,
It looks like it's a-dyin' an' it's hardly been born.

Hey, Woody Guthrie, but I know that you know
All the things that I'm a-sayin' an' a-many times more.
I'm a-singin' you the song, but I can't sing enough,
'Cause there's not many men that done the things that you've done.

Here's to Cisco an' Sonny an' Leadbelly too,
An' to all the good people that traveled with you.
Here's to the hearts and the hands of the men
That come with the dust and are gone with the wind.

I'm a-leaving' tomorrow, but I could leave today,
Somewhere down the road someday.
The very last thing that I'd want to do
Is to say I've been hittin' some hard travelin' too.

Ring them Bells
Ring them bells, ye heathen
From the city that dreams,
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries
Cross the valleys and streams,
For they're deep and they're wide
And the world's on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the bride.
Ring them bells St. Peter
Where the four winds blow,
Ring them bells with an iron hand
So the people will know.
Oh it's rush hour now
On the wheel and the plow
And the sun is going down
Upon the sacred cow.
Ring them bells Sweet Martha,
For the poor man's son,
Ring them bells so the world will know
That God is one.
Oh the shepherd is asleep
Where the willows weep
And the mountains are filled
With lost sheep.
Ring them bells for the blind and the deaf,
Ring them bells for all of us who are left,
Ring them bells for the chosen few
Who will judge the many when the game is through.
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,
For the child that cries
When innocence dies.
Ring them bells St. Catherine
From the top of the room,
Ring them from the fortress
For the lilies that bloom.
Oh the lines are long
And the fighting is strong
And they're breaking down the distance
Between right and wrong.
"..When I first heard Elvis' voice, I knew that I wasn't going to work for anybody ... hearing him for the first time was like busting out of jail" - Bob Dylan

Emmylou .Linda & Dolly - After The Goldrush

"After the Gold Rush" is a song written by Neil Young from the 1970 album of the same name. In addition to After the Gold Rush, it also appears on Decade, Greatest Hits and Live Rust.


After The Goldrush

Dolly Parton once commented about the making of her version of the song; "when we were doing the Trio album, I asked Linda and Emmy what it meant, and they didn't know. So we called Neil Young, and he didn't know. We asked him, flat out, what it meant, and he said, 'Hell, I don't know. I just wrote it. It just depends on what I was taking at the time. I guess every verse has something different I'd taken.'



"After The Goldrush"

Well, I dreamed I saw the knights
In armor coming,
Saying something about a queen.
There were peasants singing and
Drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree.
There was a fanfare blowing
To the sun
That was floating on the breeze.
Look at Mother Nature on the run
In the nineteen seventies.
Look at Mother Nature on the run
In the nineteen seventies.

I was lying in a burned out basement
With the full moon in my eyes.
I was hoping for replacement
When the sun burst thru the sky.
There was a band playing in my head
And I felt like getting high.
I was thinking about what a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.
Thinking about what a
Friend had said
I was hoping it was a lie.

Well, I dreamed I saw the silver
Space ships flying
In the yellow haze of the sun,
There were children crying
And colors flying
All around the chosen ones.
All in a dream, all in a dream
The loading had begun.
They were flying Mother Nature's
Silver seed to a new home in the sun.
Flying Mother Nature's
Silver seed to a new home.

Ry Cooder - Nobody (album Jazz)

"Nobody" is a popular song with music by Bert Williams and lyrics by Alex Rogers, published in 1905.


Ry Cooder - Nobody (Soundstage Chicago 16 Nov... door  morrisanddylan
Soundstage -Chicago 16 Nov.1978

The song was first publicly performed in February 1906, in the Broadway production Abyssinia. The show, which included live camels, was premièred at the Majestic Theater and continued the string of hits for the vaudeville team of Williams and Walker. "Nobody," became Bert Williams' signature theme, and the song he is best remembered for today. It is a doleful and ironic composition, replete with his dry observational wit, and is perfectly complemented by Williams' intimate, half-spoken singing style.
Williams became so identified with the song that he was obliged to sing it in almost every appearance for the rest of his life. He considered its success both blessing and curse:



Williams, Bert (1874-1922)
                                             Bert Williams (1874-1922)


When life seems full of clouds an' rain
and I am filled with naught but pain,
who soothes my thumpin' bumpin' brain ?
Nobody

When winter comes with snow an' sleet,
and me with hunger and cold feet,
who says " Ah, here's two bits, go an' eat!"
Nobody

I ain't never done nothin' to nobody,
I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time!
And until I get somethin' from somebody, sometime,
I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time!

When I try hard an' scheme an' plan,
to look as good as I can,
who says " Ah, look at that handsome man!"
Nobody

When all day long things go amiss,
and I go home to find some bliss,
who hands to me a glowin' kiss?
Nobody

I ain't never done nothin' to nobody,
I ain't never got nothin' from nobody, no time!
And until I get somethin' from somebody, sometime,
I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time!

Nobody, no time!

Nikki Hill & Band - If You Want Blood (Swing Wespelaar 20 Aug.2016)

                                Foto Arthur
Niet alleen blues op Swing Wespelaar,maar ook Deep Soul en (Hard) Rock met Nikki Hill en haar band.Dit was de toegift van haar optreden ,en een tegelijk een sfeerbeeld van dit mooie festival.

 Hailing from Durham, North Carolina, Nikki comes by her Deep South soul honestly. Her musical roots began while singing in gospel choirs at church as a child. A stint living in nearby college town Chapel Hill introduced her to many different styles of music and the awareness of music (and more importantly, unique and non-mainstream music) as a possible career. After pairing up with her guitar-playing husband Matt Hill, they have made an unstoppable team and have established themselves as roots rock and roll powerhouses!

Nikki Hill -If You Want Blood  (AC/DC) Swing... door  morrisanddylan

 Nikki Hill’s self-titled EP released in June of 2012 created a heavy and sudden international underground buzz that the band has traveled with from state to state and overseas. Those 4 tunes penned by Hill herself, proved that they have an energy that appeals to everyone who is ready to dance, drawing crowds from every avenue at their shows. One club advertisement will call Nikki “The Southern Fireball”, “the new soul sensation”, “amazing R&B shouter”, and even “the new Queen of Rock and Roll”. Moving into 2013 with more songs, more energy, and a desire to play their music for the world, the band is still gaining momentum and appear to have no plans of stopping, as they are continuing to tour all over the United States, Europe and Australia after Hill’s newest debut full length album Here’s Nikki Hill, released in April 2013, helps them spread their message of rock ‘n’ soul to believers and new converts everywhere!

The Who - A Quick One,While He,s Away (Montery 1967)

                             
Although already a big act in the UK, and now gaining some attention in the US after playing some New York dates two months earlier, The Who were propelled into the American mainstream at Monterey. The band used rented Vox amps for their set, which were not as powerful as their regular Sound City amps which they had left in England to save shipping costs. At the end of their frenetic performance of "My Generation", the audience was stunned as guitarist Pete Townshend smashed his guitar, smoke bombs exploded behind the amps and frightened concert staff rushed onstage to retrieve expensive microphones. At the end of the mayhem, drummer Keith Moon kicked over his drum kit as the band exited the stage. The Who, after winning a coin toss, performed before Jimi Hendrix, as Townshend and Hendrix each refused to go on after the other, both having planned instrument-demolishing conclusions to their respective sets.


"A Quick One, While He's Away", the title track of The Who,s second album, is a nine-minute suite of song snippets telling a story of infidelity and reconciliation, a first foray into extended form that led to the so-called "rock operas" Tommy and Quadrophenia.
