CLARKSTON, Mi., Pine Knob Music Theatre SOUNDCHECK before concert June 11, 1981 1. instrumental rifs 2. Two Ways 3. Please Be Patient With Me 4. instrumental blues This is from the same collection of Dylan soundcheck tapes as the torrent I posted Thursday night, and is likely from the same taper. The sound quality is better, since the taper seems to be closer to the arena (I don't hear cars driving around the parking area in this one), although like most soundcheck auds it's quite rough. The music is much more interesting; the two named songs are said to be Dylan originals, with "Please Be Patient With Me" listed as recorded at Rundown Studio in March of 1981, also played at the June 14 soundcheck, and tried out by Carolyn Dennis on the opening date of the 1981 European tour; it even has a (blank) lyrics page at bobdylan.com. The "Two Ways" performance appears to be all that is known of the song, unless there's something in Heylin's newest book. Also interesting to me is the taper's comment, near the beginning of the tape, that he had filmed (on 8mm) around 12 hours worth of Dylan in concert since 1974. That archive could be larger than all of the circulating audience film from 1974-80 combined; I really can't tell how much of it circulates. Anyone who can shed light on this is enouraged to message me or post at DIME or email me at monicasdud@yahoo.com. |
