Bob Dylan - Hurricane (Take 1) [ORIGINAL BANNED VERSION] 

I've seen him live and I am thankful. I like that Bob helped Hurricane Carter who subsequently moved to Toronto to assist other wrongfully incarcerated and Bobby had lifted the band from Ronnie Hawkins in Toronto too so that made things seem more square.

Right on!

'74 LA Forum..awesome!

Like I say...."For someone who can't sing, he SURE CAN SING!!"👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️

Unfortunately his concerts nowadays aren’t very good. I had the opportunity to go to one and I was very dissatisfied. He did not show much enthusiasm and we were not allowed to record or even have access to our phones (probably because nobody would go if they saw how bad it was). If you were able to go to a concert where he actually tried and made an effort I envy you.

He just has nothing to prove - we know he's genius !

CLASS ACT? DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE DID? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EVO-US609wg.html&ab_channel=ConspiracyMusicGuru ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hOas0d-fFK8.html&ab_channel=StartToContinue

GENIUS? Was it Bob that wrote the words, or someone else? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hOas0d-fFK8.html&ab_channel=StartToContinue

... & "the Hurricane is beautiful"... !!!

Well said, I am the same - except its 45 years for me now!

@@davidsmith6355 Same here

Have liked this song since 1975.bet I've listened to it over 10,000 times.

30 years for me. Since 1993.

Agreed, if there's such a thing as #1...it's surely Bob!

You can continue the argument about who is the greatest rock star. Dylan is just the king of song writing, written and produced 40+ albums. To me, Richards is the poster boy for the definition " Rock Star ". Stones aren't my favorite band, or is Richards my favorite musician but when people say " party like a rockstar"? They can try but nobody partied like Keith Richards.

Bob Dylan ain’t even rock and roll tbh he jumped on the bandwagon after he had rinsed “folk” dry

@Natalie Dalton That's right. He started early, freaking out his high school audience by playing "real loud".

DetailedRecruiting. You hit it, brother. A true artist doesn't run out of material because messages, memories, and ideas are the atmosphere they live in. Little Bobby Zimmerman knew he had a mission even while he was still a child trying to memorize chords. Start your life as an artist by reading a poem a day -- read it with the attention you would give it if it was directions to the secret treasure you will never need and never receive. The universe needs you.

I'd never heard of Howie Wyeth before or since this session, but to me, his drumming on this outtake, and the whole "Desire" album, is world class.

Incredible Drummer and bass Line 👍👍👍😍

that snare...chops. 🥁

This should be the top comment. Thanks sir

Lots of song go longer than ten minutes.

then you havent heard alot of dylans songs then

@@KillVZiggy yes I know that's another amazing thing about Dylan besideeees his Lyrics. No performer on this planet can't perform songs Life ojn stage and remember all the Lines. He is the 8th wonder of the world follow this man since 1965 and still writes something new every Decade.

Leave Jeanette alone, folks. Ten minute songs aren't played on a transistor radio. 🤪

His "Murder Most Foul" goes 17 minutes.

the DEVIL MADE HIM DO IT? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hOas0d-fFK8.html&ab_channel=StartToContinue

John Prine should be your next listen. Another of the best ever song writers.

such basic beats,-. Clear and crisp. I just hearing this version for the first time. . . .. and liking it very much...- . . . . . . .

What album is this version on

@@davidl2822 its not on any album. it is the earlier UNRELEASED version of what they put on the album - DESIRE. Read the intro at the top, it explains things.

So much better than released version... you only get one take and this one was it....imo

Howie Wyeth is the drummer on the session. His work on this outtake and especially, for me, "Black Diamond Bay" is just fantastic.

Right on!!!!

Hard to disagree. Most of my favorites are singer/songwriters: Paul Simon, Joe Strummer, Paul Westerberg, Pet Doherty, Waren Zevon, Michael Kiwanuka, Jake Bugg... but none come close to Dylan, and I don't think they'd disagree or take exception to that. He is king.

JoePublicEnemyNo1 Love the mention to Michael Kiwanuka. He truly is great.

You got that right.

Russell Hohl 0 seconds ago Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his poetry and lyrics.

carter murdered three people what the fuck are you talking about

Mine too. The first Dylan song I play. The most moving. This is Dylan where you love him the most. The most rockin', but at the same time the most idealistic, trying to change the world, stickin' it to the man, all within the same song. There is no one else like him.

@@bigdaddy1279 "The man the authorities came to blame". As relevent today as it was fourty years.ago. Enjoy my friend.

I agree with you. But spell it right..Dylan.

@@utube5165 Thank You for correcting me on that. I stand corrected. Sometimes when I am commenting and typing fast, I spell the way it sounds to me and don't take the time to go back and correct my spelling errors. My Bad. Thanks again. J

@@Jims757 J thanks for your great comment though- that is what counts :-), sorry for being picky about the minor detail :-). You are absolutely right that going electric opened up a whole new world of artistry for him, which was a great move. I guess with true talent, you really got to take risks to create new paradigms and who could do it better than Dylan? I saw him twice live, and each time he performed a completely different vibe and sound, both terrific in their own way. What a musician, and poet. One of a kind.

@@utube5165 Thanks for that my Friend. Not to worry about being "picky." I am guilty of that at times, as my ex-wives will attest to. I never had the pleasure of seeing Dylan live in concert. You are a lucky and blessed Man.

It stayed relevant sadly

Yah me too

It wasn't released after fears of lawsuits that could happen

Thank you, Flavio! So great to hear.

The song is very powerful Dylans voice is very clear and the beat is steady

I'll swap No Time to Think for Changing of the Guards

I KNEW that was Emmylou! I went looking for this comment. :) What a perfect version.

At first I was wondering if it was Stevie Nicks, but now that you say Emmylou, I can see that. Great tune.

Cierto,.. !! Great Song This,.. & great album Desire´´ for me ,.. ones of the best of Dylan,,.. Saludos,..🤪👍

@@amuedostones3715 Ciao! 🙋‍♀️

​@@amuedostones3715For me not one of the best but the best

Lawyers at Columbia Records made Dylan change some of the lyrics to avoid lawsuits. Originally, he had a section describing Bello and Bradley stealing the possessions of the shooting victims, which they were not accused of.

He played this version on pbs in 1975.bob has always changed lyrics to his songs.he also changed at the last minute from a d chord to a c chord.notice how much slower and deeper this version sounds .?everything was sharper. the insanity that we could actually do this to a fellow human being.the words tell the whole story.to bad he didn't come out with a part two of this song on the bravery of the man who was arrested with rueban carter.i think his name was John artis.( Not sure if last name is correct , I can say he just died recently.he is the hero in this story.

Wasn’t really “banned” per say. Columbia came down on Bob and told him to change a line in the song “I was only robbing the bodies” which didn’t actually happen and could’ve resulted in a lawsuit for defamation/libel. Because there was so much microphone leakage in the recording, they couldn’t just overdub the new line in as it would still be audible and would fuck up the rhythm of the track. So Bob re-recorded the song and made it significantly faster as a result. That’s why this take is 2 minutes longer

Emmylou Harris

@@markcorley thank your trying to remember her name! Phenomenal

Loriann G... Really...that's really cool...to personally know the Man that inspired Bob Dylan to write this song...He really could of been the Champion... Powerful Story...Are you from Patterson? Stay safe and be smart these crazy days... thanks for sharing+ Eric Underwood class of 81 Downey High School California..I'm sorry your from Toronto... Thanks for caring about Rubin!

I've seen him 25 times since 87 in the UK and in the states including last year with Neil Young in London.

Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature for his poetry and lyrics.

Concordo from Brazil;;;

I must say I agree withyou

I agree.

I think emilou Harris not joan

It's like Dylan was mad he had to rerecord it and he just rushed through the takes at a faster tempo. The drums on the remade version are superior tho, they added the little stops in the chorus

I prefer the other And was it EMMYLOU??

It was Ronee Blakely on Hurricane. Emmylou was on the other songs.

Love this version

Ohhh, I thought she sounded like Stevie Nicks.

RIV+HARRIS ++=THIS THX

Small note... vocals from the voice of an angel.

I thought that sounded like Emmylou. She's not on the album version is she?

@@jimfreemanjimfreeman3889 No... but Emmylou sings on the other songs of Dylan's great 'Desire' album... on this song, Scarlet on violin deserves some kind of a BEST-EVER supporting-musician award...

No remember George floyd

Sadly, no!

I don't think the public has progressed as much as hate and racism exists extensively.as unfortunate as it is,it's a real shame some of have while others haven't.i know I have.

nope, and it's only gonna get worse before it gets better

Incroyable Didier

@@UndeadKiev007 To me it's pretty croyable.

and dylan never sang this song again because he realized he fucked up

This version is much better than the released one. I LO,VE the mix, the reverb, the urgency....... now I think I know why I never warmed up to the released version tho I love Desire - Dylan was pissed that he had to record it..... I don't blame him... he had to know this was a better take - and kudos to the producer, mixer who put the original version this way..... love the woman's higher voice. Can't recall her name . She was in Nashville..

D BA what do you mean he fucked up

@@seanryan3928 I think he was making the point that Rubin Carter eventually received a 2nd trial in 1976, largely due to the exposure that Dylan's song brought to the case...and was found guilty AGAIN! Remember, he was never found not-guilty. He was released because his case was overturned on a technicality and the prosecution declined to try him again, because too much time had passed and most of the cops and also witnesses were either dead or in prison.

I wondered who the female backup singer was, thought it sounded a lot like Stevie Nicks at first.

Yup, the drummer plays a big part in that.

Agree.

I also agree with you, much rawer and intense.

Or it was up tempoed to accommodate radio play.

Very well done!!emmylou does a incredible job on this version!!

Somehow I never heard this one before

The copy seems to be running a little bit slow - just slightly. Ms. Rivera’s violin is slow and the drums’ sounds drag.

Glenn Thomas • Don’t believe it’s Emmylou here.

@@elvspretzl... Sounds like you're suffering symptoms of an impending stroke... call for help, if not too late.

Anders Olow I agree with you, Anders. The version on Desire is the definitive one, in my opinion. So glad you enjoyed it :)

I'm a big fan of the 69ties too! Above, or below?

@@woodpeckery below 😉🤣

Awkward... I enjoy being below, but you're a guy!

I think the original or earlier versions did have those lyrics but they were changed to 'robbin the register'. You're not mishearing.

Me too, played it constantly after the Floyd murder

Gracias bonita 😄

Qué bien!

@@luistoledo9123 má

yes, this is slower than the official version recorded in Desire

Thats so cool to have great memories and connections, even small ones makes us feel good. Peace and Love

You just described symptoms of a potential heart attack... call someone, if not too late.

@@woodpeckery Not nearly as clever as you think it is.

@@Kyarrix... Awwww C'mon!

@@woodpeckery Nope! Lol
