Never saw this one before.

In case that's Marlon Brando... why is he so dirty?

He's just climbed off the footplate of The Pacific Chief. He's certainly got his leery eye on gamine little Bobby. Who's got herself between the two of them, I wonder?

Fair enough, Pinz. My bad. I see that I'll have to re-read it (when I get the time).

Seems that the Chinese ascendency theme misled me into believing that Bob's interlocutor was Chinese himself. The name 'Sun' might have contributed to this impression, I suppose.

He is light years ahead.


'Dylan’s willingness to enforce his copyright in cases where he feels his work has been infringed upon, and his attempts to conceal his use of external passages indicates that he is well aware of what he is doing.
One is left to wonder, with Dylan, not only whether what he has done is fair, but whether it is worthy of his own legacy" Alexander T. Deley

Bob is an alchemist.
He can turn just about anything into cash,
plus he has the road maps to the soul.

From the wikipedia entry for Clayton:

Alleged plagiarism by Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan's friendship with Clayton dated back to 1961, Dylan's first year in New York City. Dylan traveled cross-country with Clayton and two other friends in 1963, during which they visited poet Carl Sandburg in North Carolina, attended Mardi Gras in New Orleans and rendezvoused with Joan Baez in California.
In an interview published as part of a history of Greenwich Village folk club Gerde's Folk City, folksinger Barry Kornfeld described how Clayton's "Who's Gonna Buy You Ribbons (When I'm Gone)" morphed into Dylan's "Don't Think Twice":
"I was with Paul one day, and Dylan wanders by and says, 'Hey, man, that's a great song. I'm going to use that song.' And he wrote a far better song, a much more interesting song - 'Don't Think Twice, It's All Right'."
Dylan's and Clayton's publishing companies sued each other over the alleged plagiarism. As it turned out, Clayton's song was derived from an earlier folksong entitled "Who's Gonna Buy You Chickens When I'm Gone?", which was in the public domain. The lawsuits, which were settled out of court, had no effect on the friendship between the two songwriters.
In the notes to Biograph (album) (1985), Dylan acknowledges that "'Don't Think Twice' was a riff that Paul [Clayton] had." He also credits Clayton for the melody line to "Percy's Song".


You might want to read the following blog entry, though, which questions Clayton's claim to have 'borrowed' his song from an earlier folk song:

'There is another narrative, however, and it's that Dylan is not just the first and greatest intentional rock 'n' roll poet.

He's also the first great rock 'n' roll a**h***'

That's interesting.
I witnessed an entire backstage and side-of-stage area ordered cleared before he entered the venue, and the roadies and sound crew said they were advised to avert their eyes.

Confession:
My opinion of Bob Dylan's work is changing.
Lately for me, his music is not all that pleasant to listen to.
And I've been a big fan for years.
I was at five BD concerts in the past 1 & 1/2 yr.

I have a pretty big Dylan collection, but lately am only playing a CD when I'm trying to make someone go.

Is Bob Dylan the most financially successful, overrated, untalented, sell out that ever lived ?
Or maybe I'm going through a stage of Dylan fandom ?
