Best Albums Ever: Bob Dylan: "Highway 61 Revisited" (1965) Folk, blues, rock. gospel, country. traditional. pop vocal, jazz


 Bob Dylan:  
"Highway 61 Revisited"
 (1965)


Robert Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman; May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter, author and visual artist. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning 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 anti-war 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 mainly comprised 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 songs adapted the tunes and phraseology of older folk songs. He went on to release the politically charged The Times They Are a-Changin' and the more lyrically abstract and introspective Another Side of Bob Dylan in 1964. In 1965 and 1966, Dylan drew controversy when he adopted electrically amplified rock instrumentation, and in the space of 15 months recorded three of the most important and influential rock albums of the 1960s: Bringing It All Back Home (1965), Highway 61 Revisited (1965) and Blonde on Blonde (1966). His six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone" (1965) was also influential and expanded commercial and creative boundaries in popular music.

In July 1966, a motorcycle accident led to Dylan's withdrawal from touring. During this period, he recorded a large body of songs with members of the Band, who had previously backed him on tour. These recordings were released as the collaborative album The Basement Tapes in 1975. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Dylan explored country music and rural themes in John Wesley Harding (1967), Nashville Skyline (1969), and New Morning (1970). In 1975, he released Blood on the Tracks, which many saw as a return to form. In the late 1970s, he became a born-again Christian and released a series of albums of contemporary gospel music before returning to his more familiar rock-based idiom in the early 1980s. Dylan's 1997 album Time Out of Mind marked the beginning of a renaissance for his career. He has released five critically acclaimed albums of original material since then, the most recent being Rough and Rowdy Ways (2020). He also recorded a series of three albums in the 2010s comprising versions of traditional American standards, especially songs recorded by Frank Sinatra. Dylan has toured continuously since the late 1980s on what has become known as the Never Ending Tour.

Since 1994, Dylan has published eight books of drawings and paintings, and his work has been exhibited in major art galleries. He has sold more than 125 million records, making him one of the best-selling musicians of all time. He has received numerous awards, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, ten Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award. Dylan has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. The Pulitzer Prize Board in 2008 awarded him a special citation for "his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power". In 2016, Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition".

Highway 61 Revisited is the sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on August 30, 1965 by Columbia Records. Having until then recorded mostly acoustic music, Dylan used rock musicians as his backing band on every track of the album, except for the closing track, the 11-minute ballad "Desolation Row". Critics have focused on the innovative way Dylan combined driving, blues-based music with the subtlety of poetry to create songs that captured the political and cultural chaos of contemporary America. Author Michael Gray has argued that, in an important sense, the 1960s "started" with this album.





Leading with the hit song "Like a Rolling Stone", the album features songs that Dylan has continued to perform live over his long career, including "Ballad of a Thin Man" and the title track. He named the album after the major American highway which connected his birthplace of Duluth, Minnesota, to southern cities famed for their musical heritage, including St. Louis, Memphis, New Orleans, and the Delta blues area of Mississippi.

Highway 61 Revisited peaked at No. 3 on the US Billboard 200 and No. 4 on the UK Albums Chart. Positively received on release, the album has since been described as one of Dylan's best works and among the greatest albums of all time, ranking No. 18 on Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". It was voted No. 26 in the third edition of Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums (2000) and was featured in Robert Dimery's 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die (2010). "Like a Rolling Stone" was a top-10 hit in several countries, and was listed at No. 1 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. Two other songs, "Desolation Row" and "Highway 61 Revisited", were listed at No. 187 and No. 373 respectively.

Best Albus Ever: Cocteau Twnins: "Garlands" (1982) Dream pop, ethereal wave, gothic rock, post-punk





Cocteau Twnins:
 "Garlands" 
1982

Cocteau Twins were a Scottish band active from 1979 to 1997. They were formed in Grangemouth by Robin Guthrie (guitars, drum machine) and Will Heggie (bass), adding Elizabeth Fraser (vocals) in 1981 and replacing Heggie with multi-instrumentalist Simon Raymonde in 1983. The group earned critical praise for their ethereal, effects-laden sound and the soprano vocals of Fraser, whose lyrics often abandon recognisable language. They pioneered the 1980s alternative rock subgenre of dream pop.


The band's early work drew influence from Siouxsie and the Banshees and Joy Division. After signing with the British record label 4AD in 1982, they released their debut album Garlands later that year. The addition of Raymonde in 1983 solidified their final lineup, which produced their biggest hit in the UK, "Pearly-Dewdrops' Drops", peaking at No. 29 on the UK Singles Chart. In 1988, Cocteau Twins signed with Capitol Records in the United States, distributing their fifth album, Blue Bell Knoll, through a major label in the country. After the 1990 release of their most critically acclaimed album, Heaven or Las Vegas, the band left 4AD for Fontana Records, where they released their final two albums.




After nearly 20 years together, the band disbanded in 1997 in part due to issues stemming from the disintegration of Fraser and Guthrie's romantic relationship. In 2005, the band announced that they would reunite to headline Coachella and embark on a world tour but the reunion was cancelled a month later after Fraser refused to perform on stage with Guthrie. In a 2021 interview, Raymonde confirmed that Cocteau Twins "will never reform".

Garlands is the debut album by Scottish alternative rock band Cocteau Twins, released on 10 July 1982 by 4AD. It peaked in the top 5 of the UK Independent Albums Chart, and received support from BBC Radio 1 radio host John Peel.

Garlands is the only album the band recorded with original bassist Will Heggie. Prior to the album the band recorded a four track session for John Peel in June 1982 including "Wax and Wane" and "Garlands". A second John Peel session in January 1983 was included as bonus tracks on the cassette and CD release of Garlands. Gordon Sharp of Cindytalk provided backup vocals on "Dear Heart", "Hearsay Please", and "Hazel".

Spontano Sagorevanje: 

"Kobni Dan" 

29



Gospodin u crnom odelu se sapleo, udario je glavom o betonski ivičnjak i na mestu je ostao mrtav. 

Gospodin u belom odelu je prelazio stari most. Par trulih dasaka je popustilo i gospodin se survao u reku, njega više niko nikada nije video. 

Gospodin u plavom, radnom odelu, je pao sa krova. 

Gospodin u zelenom šorcu je pao sa drveta, jako nezgodno, preminuo je na putu za bolnicu. 

Gospodin u crvenoj pidžami je zaspao, ispustio cigaretu i zapalio se.

Za razliku od ostalih, gospodin u kamuflažnom odelu je izbegavao dosta neprilika tog dana. Ubijen je snajperom, na sumrak, pri povrtku kući.

*

Naspuprot svima, gospodin sa zelenom kapom, u zlatno-žutoj košulji i crvenim pantalonama, a u belim cipelicama, je kobni dan, zamišljen, presedeo, da bi na veče, kao dete zaspao.

In the Spirit of the Time: Ministry - Moral Hygiene (2021) Industrial Rock



Ministry 
"Moral Hygiene"
 (2021) 


Moral Hygiene is truly an album for its time. Since the 1980s, American industrial metal trailblazers Ministry and their iconic frontman Al Jourgensen have been hitting at the jugular vein of social and political issues.
Moral Hygiene is no exception. Crafted during the lockdowns of the COVID-19 pandemic, Jourgensen has pulled no punches and unleashed an unapologetically critical and insightful album that attacks a range of contemporary issues, including racial injustice, fake news, the climate crisis, and of course, the pandemic. While Moral Hygiene is Ministry’s fifteenth album, it is fresh, relevant, and stacked with incisive socio-political commentary from one of extreme music’s veterans of discontented rage.










Ministry's fifteenth album Moral Hygiene provides a few surprise twists









Somewhere in the last couple of decades, Al Jourgensen decided that the pulverising machine-metal he pioneered with 1992’s Psalm 69 was it, the Ministry sound, for ever and ever.

Movies by Books: "A Clockwork Orange" :: Writer, Anthony Burgess :: Movie Director, Stanley Kubrick - Science fiction, dystopian fiction, satire, black comedy


A Clockwork Orange
Book
1962

A Clockwork Orange is a dystopian satirical black comedy novel by English writer Anthony Burgess, published in 1962. It is set in a near-future society that has a youth subculture of extreme violence. The teenage protagonist, Alex, narrates his violent exploits and his experiences with state authorities intent on reforming him. The book is partially written in a Russian-influenced argot called "Nadsat", which takes its name from the Russian suffix that is equivalent to '-teen' in English. According to Burgess, it was a jeu d'esprit written in just three weeks.

In 2005, A Clockwork Orange was included on Time magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels written since 1923, and it was named by Modern Library and its readers as one of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century. The original manuscript of the book has been kept at McMaster University's William Ready Division of Archives and Research Collections in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada since the institution purchased the documents in 1971.[6] It is considered one of the most influential dystopian books.




Adaptations:

A 1965 film by Andy Warhol entitled Vinyl was an adaptation of Burgess's novel.

The best known adaptation of the novella to other forms is the 1971 film 
A Clockwork Orange by Stanley Kubrick,

A Clokwork Orange
Movie
1971





A Clockwork Orange is a 1971 science fiction crime film adapted, produced, and directed by Stanley Kubrick, based on Anthony Burgess's 1962 novel of the same name. It employs disturbing, violent images to comment on psychiatry, juvenile delinquency, youth gangs, and other social, political, and economic subjects in a near-future Britain.

Alex (Malcolm McDowell), the central character, is a charismatic, antisocial delinquent whose interests include classical music (especially Beethoven), committing rape, theft and what is termed "ultra-violence". He leads a small gang of thugs, Pete (Michael Tarn), Georgie (James Marcus), and Dim (Warren Clarke), whom he calls his droogs (from the Russian word друг, "friend", "buddy"). The film chronicles the horrific crime spree of his gang, his capture, and attempted rehabilitation via an experimental psychological conditioning technique (the "Ludovico Technique") promoted by the Minister of the Interior (Anthony Sharp). Alex narrates most of the film in Nadsat, a fractured adolescent slang composed of Slavic (especially Russian), English, and Cockney rhyming slang.

The film premiered in New York City on 19 December 1971 and was released in the United Kingdom on 13 January 1972. The film was met with polarised reviews from critics and was controversial due to its depictions of graphic violence. After it was cited as having inspired copycat acts of violent, the film was later withdrawn from British cinemas at Kubrick's behest, and it was also banned in several other countries. In the years following, the film underwent a critical re-evaluation and gained a cult following. It received several awards and nominations, including four nominations at the 44th Academy Awards.

In 2020, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

 Oganj


Dovoljno sam govorio, odavno sam se umorio

Voleo bih sada da čujem nežan, novi zvuk...


Prolivena krv, postala je  praznik, kaldrma dželat

Nekada je neko sanjao miran san

Dugo sam te zvao, mislim da više nisi tamo, gde sam te upoznao...


Otvorio sam vrata

Provalija me je pogledala

Izabrao sam svetlost koja me je oslepela...


Sećam se uboda ružinog trna

Tužnog psećeg pogleda

Sećam se drugačije obasjanih dana...


Voleo sam tu malu slikovnicu

Malenog dečaka i njegov mač koji peva

Zelene oči i beskrajnu tugu u njima...


Hrabrost je odavno iščezla

Ispred mene stoji kip

Mrtvački sanduk je pored njega...


Lepoto sakrivena

Senkama pokrivena

Treba te videti

Oganj su vrata.

The Fire Circle 


I've talked enough, I got tired a long time ago

I would like to hear a gentle new sound now...


Spilled blood, became a holiday, cobblestone executioner

Once upon a time, someone had a peaceful dream

I have been calling you for a long time, I think you are no longer there, where I met you...


I opened the door

The abyss looked at me

I chose the light that blinded me...


I remember the sting of the rose thorn

I remember the sad dog look

I remember days lit differently...


I loved that little picture book

A little boy and his singing sword

Green eyes and endless sadness in them...


Courage is long gone

There is a statue in front of me

The coffin is next to him...


Beauty...you hid yourself

Covered in shadows

Need to see you

The fire circle is the door...


****


Cercle de feu


J'ai assez parlé, je me suis fatigué il y a longtemps

Je voudrais entendre un nouveau son doux maintenant ...


Le sang renversé est devenu un jour férié

Il était une fois, quelqu'un fit un rêve paisible

Je t'ai appelé longtemps, je pense que tu n'es plus là où je t'ai rencontré...


J'ai ouvert la porte

L'abîme m'a regardé

J'ai choisi la lumière qui m'aveuglait...


Je me souviens de la piqûre de l'épine de rose

Je me souviens du regard triste du chien

Je me souviens des journées éclairées différemment...


J'ai adoré le petit vieux livre d'images

Un petit garçon et son épée chantante

Yeux verts et tristesse sans fin en eux...


Le courage est parti depuis longtemps

Il y a une statue devant moi

Le cercueil est à côté de lui...


Magnifique... tu t'es caché

Couvert d'ombres

Vous devez être vu

Le Cercle de Feu est la porte...
