Life is funny, I was a kid when I first heard this song. 1964, a kid from a family of 8 children. It was a wet Saturday morning, Dad gone to work, Mum having to walk the two miles to go shopping. My 12 yr old sister doing ironing in the kitchen. Her battered and old transistor radio belting out this song track. 60 years later, the memory of that morning still indelibly burnt into my memory like it only happened yesterday. I wanna go back there, I wanna re-live those tough times, those hard times. We had nothing, and yet we never went hungry and we were never cold. The old folks, for all their faults never failed us. Always making sure that we were fed and warm. I wanna go back to those simpler times. Where neighbours were like an extension of the family. Clothes / hand me downs shared around, altered, patched and mended. …. We don’t even know the names of the folks next door anymore, let alone treat them as all part of the family. ….Now go and listen to the 60 year old words of Mr Bob Dylan, singing any of his songs….. and they will all tell you just how much we have lost over this past 60 years.

@Ummmm, iPhones or Nintendo was invented in the 60’s so your comment is clearly very obscure.

[@TINSTAAFL1]

The audience were upset and booed because Dylan only played 3 songs. Peter Yarrow, who was on the Newport board, begged Dylan to go back on to play another song. Johnny Cash also made similarly encouraging noises. An onstage photograph shows a tear running down Dylan’s left cheek shocked as he was by the booing. He then borrowed Yarrow’s guitar and went back on stage to sing “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue”. It was one of the most amazing things when he played that song - the irony of it, and the fact that he was using a borrowed guitar. It was all over now with folk music, and folk’s old guard knew it. “This was the Birth of Rock,” Boyd wrote in his memoir White Bicycles, adding that “anyone wishing to portray the history of the Sixties as a journey from idealism to hedonism could place the hinge at around 9.30 pm on the night of 25 July, 1965”.

In the late 50s and early 60s, families across America succumbed to marketing & questionable health claims, and switched from butter to Crisco for making Christmas cookies. After multiple years of eating dry, tasteless cookies that left him with wicked heartburn, Santa lost his mind and engaged in a short-lived, yet brutal, campaign of terror and vengeance on American families. Dylan is singing about the success of all living past and present Surgeons General teaming up to lead a paramilitary force of Better Homes & Gardens subscribers to repel hangry Santa and his reindeer army.

[@dwaynepagnotto6771]

I agree with everything here. That Maggie's Farm song he lays on them is like he's making a statement to them first thing. It's like he's saying i am no longer working under these same conditions. I have found a chance to move up and i am taking it. But then he sings this song, and it does seem kind of emotional for him. It almost seems like wants to cry at certain times during the song. Like he knows he's leaving behind some very wonderful, people, music, memories and the like. But he is determined to reach his full potential. So it is bittersweet, as any farewell song usually is.

[@johnnaylor1706]

In my college years (early 70s) Dylan was oft seen around the Village ... tho I knew of much of his earlier work it was seeing the movie "Pat Garret and Billy the Kid" there was a dichotomy between the character he played and the song "Knocking on Heaven's Door" that struck me, the scene by the river still takes my voice away and wets my cheeks every time I watch it. The emotional roller coaster that was "Blood on the Tracks" remains one of the few recordings I have that is never listened to other than from start to finish.

Its important to understand some context with this performance. He had just finished his electric set and Peter Yarrow asked him to do one more, Dylan wasnt very pleased. You can hear him directing his verse to the audience, who want him to continue as the folk hero they know and love, Dylan seems to want none of that. He's organic and is ready for the next chapter. " You must leave now take what you need, You think will last" Those emotions make this a steller performance in my opinion.

As I was saying, Clayton was a close friend who joined Dylan on the famous road trip down Highway 61 to New Orleans. But by the mid-60s, Dylan would no longer tolerate Clayton's erratic speed-filled antics, and he dumped Clayton. Desperate, out of money, ignored by Dylan and the record companies, Clayton committed suicide in 1967. His estate did pry some money out of Dylan for the music to "Don't Think Twice It's All Right," which Dylan "borrowed" from one of Clayton's songs. A sad story all around, but largely forgotten. Many of the references in "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" allude to Clayton, e.g., "sea sick sailors," which refers to the many sea shanties that Clayton recorded in his prime. "The vagabond who was knocking at your door, is wearing the clothes that you once wore," is if course Dylan referring to himself, and so on.

Wonderful performance of a powerful song from Bob. Tantalizing harmonica playing, he does it so well. Always a treat to see and hear him 😊

[@claudemayers]

this is a gem!!! The song that ends the movie a complete unknown done very well by the actor but here is Dylan doing it that night July 25, 1965 at the Newport folk Festival. Also you should check the recording studio version with the band which is the ultimate version I've heard over the years and one of Dylan's best songs.

always a favourite

My 10 yo old son picked up these songs just like i did at his age, although it belongs to my father’s era. I guess we come from melancholy. Our women prefer rock stars who age just as fast.

[@Robert-p9k]

I just love this song. That’s all.

[@john-hl5tq]

Me to ... Marrianne Faithfull's version.

This is 60 years ago, amazing. Thanks for sharing this.

Knappe compositie! Alweer "a timeless masterpiece". Alweer een sublieme Bob Dylan compositie... die door diverse anderen mooi & knap werden gezongen....met vaak een rijker en mooiklinkend arrangement... B D is een verdiende Nobelprijswinnaar van Literatuur... veel van zijn songs zijn gebalde romans... ongelooflijk knap... met hele knappe vondsten erin! Te bewonderen! Blij dat ik kan genieten van het "uitzonderlijk knappe" in heel wat Dylan songs...

Hypnotic and seductive. Only Dylan manages to be on stage alone with guitar and harmonica without disappointing anyone. I apologize for my poor English. Ipnotico e seducente. Solo Dylan riesce a stare sul palco da solo con chitarra e armonica senza deludere nessuno. Chiedo scusa per il mio scarso inglese.

[@hrussell9677]

Neil Young does the same.

[@uriben-gal6620]

Awesome ! Incredible poise and confidence at such a young age. The imagery of a much older man....(forget the dead you've left-they will not follow you) etc., etc.

[@wolfie854]

Superb performance. Great artist.

[@charliechod]

many artists have tried to cover this ! bob Dylan is far the best by a long way

[@michaelkelly7701]

60 years ago…60 years of rock ‘n’ rollers trying to emulate Dylan…but he’s untouchable 🙌

[@johnmorrissey7510]

Love his music! Thank you Bobby D. 🎸🌞☝

[@Diegoflyboy]

I was so Proud to be an American when Mr. Dillman played this new clever song 63 . to Donavan in a Hotel room. After Donavan sang his new song that was rather ordinary

[@jbh6612]

Saw Dylan only once with the Rolling Thunder Review in Niagara Falls USA. Life-changing!

[@richardhonour1522]

At his very best ever Imo.

[@patrickgirard7645]

C'est la meilleure version que j'ai entendu de cette magnifique chanson (grand et éternel Dylan)!

[@mlsjuge477]

Pure genius

[@markkubiak8296]

Incredible! That sonorous voice really does it for me!

[@Atie6183]

Love the song Baby Blue; very nice song by Bob Dylan with his beautiful voice. Also love the version by Marion Faitfull.

[@powerofpop8747]

GENIUS!

[@ronzundell7394]

These are the lyrics missing from todays music. Bob was the voice of a generation even though he didn't like that title.

[@lanacain]

Brilliant 👏 👏

[@ramonitbelascuain8611]

Bob sings with a sheer force, poetry, honesty and philosophy that makes his songs timeless.
