Talk:Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues

Bob Dylan's explanation of the song
If anyone wants to include the information below do do so... My earlier editing was removed but this has better referencing though it is less good:

Sydney Stadium, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, 13 April 1966, Bob Dylan introduces "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" with this explanation, "This is, this is called Tom Thumb. This story takes place outside of Mexico City. It begins in Mexico City and it ends really in Des Moines, Iowa, but it’s all about this painter, he’s a quite older fellow, he comes from Juarez, Juarez is down cross of Texas border, some few feets, and he’s a painter. He’s very very well-known painter in the area there and we all call him Tom Thumb and when Tom Thumb was going through his blue period, this is one of the most important times of his whole life and he’s going to sell many many paintings now taken from his blue period and this is all about Tom Thumb and his early days and so we name this Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues. [someone in the audience: “Hard Rain”] Isn’t that right. Hard rain. Hard rain!!"

"Sea of Blue" overlinking.
Quoteing: "The backing musicians on the take that was used on Highway 61 Revisited were Mike Bloomfield on electric guitar, Al Kooper on Hohner Pianet; a type of electro-mechanical piano, Paul Griffin on piano, Harvey Brooks on bass guitar and Bobby Gregg on drums."

Among all those links, do electric guitar, piano, bass guitar, and drums really need linking? --2602:306:CFCE:1EE0:69C3:69D9:302E:A7E9 (talk) 20:02, 1 April 2018 (UTC)Doug Bashford
