Free Music Notes for Live at the Gaslight 1962Free Music Review: Sounds as Fresh Today as It Did Then - and Rings Just as True!
... TRACK #1: There is no fade-in, and the recording starts a bit after the song has already begun. The vocal clarity is outstanding, and you can really hear the bass notes on Dylan's guitar. As for the performance? ... Man, if this don't ring true right now: "I heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world." When Dylan sings, "And what did you 'hair,' my darling young one?" you wonder if he is thinking that same thought right now. People sing along with him at the end. ... TRACK #2: I wonder if Paul Simon was inspired by the guitar intro to this one? Dylan is not just singing the words here. He's using his voice to extend the melody into a bluegrassy "high and lonesome sound." ... TRACK #3: It sounds like you're sitting right there in front of Dylan playing his guitar and singing. Real intimate. Real personal. Real lifelike. It's pristine, private, and perfect. (There's some cross-fade-out right before the 3:00 minute part of the song.) This is folk music at its best! ... TRACK #4: Some fancy finger-picking work from Dylan here. His voice sounds vibrant, young, and fresh. Very heartfelt and soulful. ... TRACK #5: Mellow and subdued. Sweet-voiced. You can see how Bruce Springsteen's approach to performing may have been influenced by Dylan's style of singing and playing here in this tune. ... TRACK #6: Here's another one you might be familiar with, through Jerry Garcia and David Grisman. ... TRACK #7: At first, you may think he's going to begin "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright," but you quickly realize that he's really moving into Taj Mahal territory. Too bad a whole generation of people did not pay closer attention to the theme of this song way back when in 1962. A few years later, Lou Reed would be writing a similar song about a different drug. Toward the end, Dylan almost breaks out in a laugh - which releases the tension. ... TRACK #8: Even when Dylan clears his throat in the early part of the song, it sounds good. I don't care if he was really clearing his throat or not, it still sounds good. This anti-war song is as timely today as it was then. A very powerful delivery. The applause at the end were well-deserved. ... TRACK #9: A very pretty song. You can hear the tenderness in Dylan's voice come through very sweetly. Dylan is really singing with his whole heart and soul here, using his voice as an instrument and not simply as a conveyor of the lyrics or as a tool to storytelling. Beautiful. It makes you wonder if Garcia ever heard this recording of this song? There was absolutely no snide yet in Dylan's voice here. It was simply pure and transparent in all its soulful, poetic glory. ... TRACK #10: The finger-picking is gone here. What remains is a pure, droney strum with a blues-based drive to it that pushes the story forward. The vocals are hard, strong, and intense. (Too bad the tape ran out before Dylan stopped playing!) When you listen to this, you'll understand why Dylan became so huge. He's serious! ... God bless his heart. ... YOWZA! - The Aeolian Kid
