Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan (legally Robert Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning more than 60 years. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963) and " The Times They Are a-Changin' (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements. His lyrics during this period incorporated a range of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, defying pop music conventions and appealing to the burgeoning counterculture. Following his self-titled debut album in 1962, which comprised mainly traditional folk songs, Dylan made his breakthrough as a songwriter with the release of ''The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan'' the following year. The album features "Blowin' in the Wind" and the thematically complex " A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall". Many of his s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Jerry Maguire
''Jerry Maguire'' is a 1996 American romantic comedy-drama sports film written, produced, and directed by Cameron Crowe; it stars Tom Cruise, Cuba Gooding Jr., Renée Zellweger, and Regina King. Produced in part by James L. Brooks, it was inspired by an experience sports agent Leigh Steinberg (who acted as technical consultant for the film) had with client Tim McDonald during the 1993 NFL season when free agency was introduced to the league. The film was also partly inspired by a 28-page memo written at Disney in 1991 by Jeffrey Katzenberg. It was released in North American theaters on December 13, 1996, produced by Gracie Films, and distributed by TriStar Pictures. The film received generally favorable reviews from critics, who praised its performances and screenplay. It was also a financial success, grossing more than $273 million worldwide against its $50 million budget. It was the ninth-highest-grossing film of 1996. It notably spawned a large number of catch phr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
ARIA Charts
The ARIA Charts are the main Australian music sales charts, issued weekly by the Australian Recording Industry Association. The charts are a record of the highest selling songs and albums in various genres in Australia. ARIA became the official Australian music chart in June 1988, succeeding the Kent Music Report, which had been Australia's national music sales charts since 1974. History The ''Go-Set'' charts were Australia's first national singles and albums charts, published from 5 October 1966 until 24 August 1974. Succeeding ''Go-Set'', the Kent Music Report began issuing the national top 100 charts in Australia from May 1974. The compiler, David Kent, also published Australia's national charts from 1940 to 1974 in a retrospective fashion using state-based data. In mid-1983, the Australian Recording Industry Association commenced licensing the Kent Music Report chart. The first printed national top 50 chart available in record stores, branded the ''Countdown'' chart, was ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sampler Album
A sampler or promotional compilation is a type of compilation album generally offered at a reduced price to showcase an artist or a selection of artists signed to a particular record label. The format became popular in the late 1960s as record labels sought to promote artists whose works were primarily available in album rather than single format, and therefore had little opportunity to gain exposure through singles-dominated radio airplay. Most samplers showcased already-released material, so that as they sampled artists they also sampled the albums from which their tracks were drawn. The term 'album sampler' is also used in cases where an album is distributed among multiple records in case of, for example, vinyl where the maximum play time is less than the length of the full album. In these cases, album sampler titles may be added to each vinyl. Elektra Records The first record sampler was ''A Folk Music Sampler'' released by Elektra Records in the US in 1954, initially for radio ...

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
"You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go" is a song by Bob Dylan. Recorded in September 1974, it appeared as the fifth track on Dylan's album ''Blood on the Tracks'', released in January 1975. Background and composition The song's lyrics have brought forth multiple interpretations—from the idea that they are confessional, to Dylan's claims that the album was inspired by literature, to the lyrics being called Dylan's most masterfully written love poem. Many believe the song describes Dylan's relationship issues with his wife during the time when they were separated. Additionally, Ellen Bernstein, a girlfriend of Dylan's in 1974 while he was separated from his wife, claims that the song was about their relationship. However, in interviews Dylan claimed the song was inspired by literature. ''Rolling Stone'' reported that in Dylan's memoir, '' Chronicles: Volume One'', "Dylan was assumed to be referring to ''Blood on the Tracks'' when he wrote: “I would even record an entire a ...

Idiot Wind
"Idiot Wind" is a song by Bob Dylan, which appeared on his 1975 album ''Blood on the Tracks''. He began writing it in the summer of 1974, after his comeback tour with The Band. Dylan recorded the song in September 1974 and re-recorded it in December 1974 along with other songs on his album ''Blood on the Tracks''. Between the recordings, he often reworked the lyrics. A live version of the song was released on Dylan's 1976 album '' Hard Rain'', and all of the studio outtakes from the September sessions were released on the deluxe edition of '' The Bootleg Series Vol. 14: More Blood, More Tracks'' in 2018. Some reviewers have speculated that the song is a reflection on Dylan's personal life, and in particular, on his deteriorating relationship with his wife Sara Dylan. Dylan has denied that it is autobiographical. Like the album it was included on, the song received a mixed critical reception on release. Commentators have acclaimed both the lyrics and performance in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Meet Me In The Morning
"Meet Me in the Morning" is a blues song written by Bob Dylan, recorded in New York City on September 16, 1974, and released on his 15th studio album, ''Blood on the Tracks'', in 1975. Composition and recording "Meet Me in the Morning" is an acoustic blues performed with a full band and the only blues song on ''Blood on the Tracks''. It is musically identical to another song, "Call Letter Blues", that Dylan had recorded earlier in the ''Blood on the Tracks'' sessions before rewriting the lyrics entirely. "Call Letter Blues" was eventually released on ''The Bootleg Series Volumes 1–3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961–1991'' in 1991. The intersection mentioned in the song's first line, 56th and Wabasha, apparently does not exist. However, Minnesota Highway 56 and Wabasha Street in Saint Paul, Minnesota did intersect in 1974, when the song was recorded. This suggests that the lyric is "56 and Wabasha" rather than "56th and Wabasha" as the official Dylan website states. Other versions A ...

Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts
"Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts", is an epic narrative ballad by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan released as the seventh song (or the second track on Side Two of the vinyl) on his 1975 album ''Blood on the Tracks''. It is known for its complex plot and nearly nine-minute running time. It is one of five songs on ''Blood on the Tracks'' that Dylan initially recorded in New York City in September 1974 and then re-recorded in Minneapolis in December that year; the latter version became the album track. Characters and plot The song features a large cast of characters and an elliptical plot: Characters * The main character in the song is "The Jack of Hearts", who has recently come into town as a leader of a gang of bank robbers.

Both are referred to in royal terms ("like a queen wit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Buckets Of Rain
"Buckets of Rain" is a song by Bob Dylan, recorded on September 19, 1974 in New York City and released in 1975 on Dylan's critically acclaimed album ''Blood on the Tracks''. A September 18, 1974 outtake of the song was released in 2018 on the single-CD and 2-LP versions of '' The Bootleg Series Vol. 14: More Blood, More Tracks'', with the complete recording sessions released on the deluxe edition of that album. Background In the officially released studio recording, "Buckets of Rain" is played in the key of E major. There are only two instruments: acoustic guitar and bass guitar. The guitar is not in standard tuning; rather, it is in "Open E" tuning. Lyrically, "Buckets of Rain" is relatively simple, with five short verses addressing a lover. Oliver Trager describes the song thus: :Closing an otherwise desperate album with a light reappraisal of commitment, "Buckets of Rain" is a final, Sinatra-like tip of the hat sung with the playfulness of an old Piedmont songster.

You're A Big Girl Now
"You're a Big Girl Now" is a song by Bob Dylan, released on his 15th studio album, ''Blood on the Tracks'', in 1975. It is one of five songs on the album that Dylan initially recorded in New York City in September 1974 and then re-recorded in Minneapolis in December that year. The latter recording, made on December 27, 1974, became the album track. Composition and recording Like most songs on ''Blood on the Tracks'', "You're a Big Girl Now" tells a story about two lovers that are breaking up. In the lyrics, the first-person narrator begs his lover to give him one more chance. Some critics have interpreted the song as being inspired by the tumult in Dylan's marriage to his then-wife Sara. Dylan vehemently denied this, however, in the liner notes to ''Biograph'': “I read that this was supposed to be about my wife. I wish somebody would ask me first before they go ahead and print stuff like that. I mean, it couldn’t be about anybody else but my wife, right? Stupid and misleading ...

Shelter From The Storm
"Shelter from the Storm" is a song by Bob Dylan, recorded on September 17, 1974, and released on his 15th studio album, ''Blood on the Tracks'', in 1975. It was later anthologized on the compilation album ''The Essential Bob Dylan'' in 2000. Composition and recording Dylan recorded five takes of the song on September 17, 1974 at A&R Recording in New York City, with the fifth take the one that was included on ''Blood on the Tracks''. Dylan sang, and played guitar and harmonica, accompanied by Tony Brown on bass. Both Robert Shelton and Oliver Trager describe the song's narrator's mood as "tempest-tossed", with Shelton saying that the song explores a "search for salvation through love" and has similarities to the work of W. B. Yeats, and Trager interpreting it as the narrator "taking stock of himself, the dangerous world around him, and his lost love". The song opens with anachronistic language and Christian symbolism: Dylan scholar Tony Attwood calls the song a "complexly wove ...

Simple Twist Of Fate
"Simple Twist of Fate", a song by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, was recorded on September 19, 1974, and was released in 1975 as the second song on his 15th studio album ''Blood on the Tracks''. Background and composition "Simple Twist of Fate" is a narrative song about a romantic relationship destined not to work out. Like "Tangled Up in Blue", which it immediately follows on "Blood on the Tracks", it is unusual in that it begins in the third person before shifting into the first. The song has been interpreted variously as being inspired by Suze Rotolo, Joan Baez and Sara Dylan. Dylan has continually revised the lyrics in live performance over the decades (through to its most recent outing in 2021 on the Rough and Rowdy Ways World Wide Tour). The song was written in the key of E major and features a descending melody line, with a chord structure almost identical to the verses of "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", Frankie Valli's 1967 hit by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio.
