Álbum Bob Dylan - Canciones

Bob Dylan

Reseña

El primer álbum en la discografía de Bob Dylan, el cantautor estadounidense, es este trabajo titulado de forma homónima. Lanzado el 19 de marzo de 1962 por el sello Columbia Records, contó con la producción de John H. Hammond, uno de los personajes más influyentes en el negocio de la música y responsable de haber acercado a Dylan a Columbia.

Con un estilo claramente folk, tardó en calar en el mercado y no fue sino hasta tres años después de su lanzamiento que se estrenó en las listas de Reino Unido. Por aquella época, Bob Dylan
era consumidor habitual de música folk y se relacionaba con muchos músicos amigos, que le invitaban a sus domicilios para presentarle nuevos temas. De esas influencias nacieron los temas para este disco.

El álbum fue grabado en tan solo tres sesiones en el Columbia's 7th Avenue studio y en ellas el cantante se mostró muy poco colaborador cuando Hammond intentaba corregir sus errores de principiante.

Al final, fueron diecisiete los temas grabados en dichas sesiones, de los cuales se descartaron cuatro. De esos descartes, tres aparecieron publicados posteriormente en el Volumen 1 de la Serie Bootleg: "House Carpenter", "He Was a Friend of Mine" y "Man on the Street". Un cuarto tema, "Ramblin' Blues" sigue aún sin ser publicado.

    letra de Highway 51

    Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
    Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
    If I don't get the girl I'm loving
    Won't go down to Highway 51 no more.
    Well, I know that highway like I know my hand
    Yes, I know that highway like I know the back of my hand
    Running from up Wisconsin way down to no man's land.
    Well, if I should die before my time should come
    And if I die before my time should come
    Won't you bury my body out on the Highway 51.
    Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
    I said, Highway 51 runs right by my baby's door
    If I don't get the girl I'm loving
    Won't go own to Highway 51 no more.

    letra de Gospel Plow

    Mary wore three links of chain
    Every link was Jesus name
    Keep your hand on that plow, hold on
    Oh Lord, Oh Lord, keep your hand on that plow, hold on.
    Mary, Mark, Luke and John
    All these prophets are dead and gone
    Keep your hand on that plow, hold on
    Oh Lord, Oh Lord, keep your hand on that plow, hold on.
    Well, I've never been to heaven
    But I've been told streets up there
    Are lined with gold
    Keep your hand on that plow, hold on
    Oh Lord, Oh Lord, keep your hand on that plow, hold on
    Oh Lord, Oh Lord, keep your hand on that plow, hold on
    Oh Lord, Oh Lord, keep your hand on that plow, hold on.

    letra de Baby, Let Me Follow You Down

    Spoken intro:
    I first heard this from Ric von Schmidt. He lives in Cambridge.
    Ric is a blues guitar player.
    I met him one day in the green pastures of Harvard University.
    Baby let me follow you down, baby let me follow you down
    Well I'll do anything in this God almighty world
    If you just let me follow you down.
    Can I come home with you, baby can I come home with you?
    Yes I'll do anything in this God almighty world
    If you just let me come home with you.
    Baby let me follow you down, baby let me follow you down
    Well I'll do anything in this God almighty world
    If you just let me follow you down.
    Yes I'll do anything in this God almighty world
    If you just let me follow you down.

    letra de Freight Train Blues

    I was born in Dixie in a boomer shack
    Just a little shanty by the railroad track
    Freight train was it taught me how to cry
    Hummin' of the driver was my lullaby
    I got the freight train blues
    Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes
    And when the whistle blows I gotta go baby, don't you know
    Well, it looks like I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues.
    Well, my daddy was a fireman and my old ma here,
    She was the only daughter of the engineer
    My sweetheart loved a brakeman and it ain't no joke
    It's a shame the way she keeps a good man broke
    I got the freight train blues
    Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes
    And when the whistle blows I gotta go oh mama, don't you know
    Well, it looks like I'm never gonna lose the freight train blues.
    Well, the only thing that makes me laugh again
    Is a southbound whistle on a southbound train
    Every place I want to go
    I never can go, because you know
    I got the freight train blues
    Oh Lord mama, I got them in the bottom of my rambling shoes.
