This will be the last Dylan song I perform for a while. In my experiments with recording myself for youtube this week, Bob just offered the perfect songs for me to play with. This one, I Threw it All Away, from his Nashville Skyline record, I just couldn’t pass up. It is one of my all time favorite songs of any artist. It’s a golden flower of a song. The words are perfect, etched in eternal ice with no superfluous imagery, and no sentiment anyone could possibly disagree with. His melody and phrasing with the song are some of his best ever, driving his message strait to your soul. It is worth checking out his performance of it on the Johnny Cash Show, which lucky for you I am posting, to of course foolishly shatter my own soft performance, but fuck it, lets just celebrate the song, and not me being a jackass. Enjoy.
