CHRISSIE HYNDE & JAMES WALBOURNE - DYLAN LOCKDOWN SERIES 01: IN THE SUMMERTIME

Hi Ya’ll!
I was so buoyed up by the new Dylan songs that I talked to Pretenders Guitar playing hot-shot James Walbourne and we decided it’s a good time to do those Dylan songs we’ve always talked about doing. Every singer-songwriter in the world covers the master's songs and there is an endless supply of them. So we’ve started, and will do one a week until lockdown ends.
The First one is off the Shot of Love album, In The Summertime. We did it from home on our phones. I did the rhythm - sent it to James, he added guitar , sent it back to me, i put on the vocal , sent it back to him, he put on some back up vocals and organ, then we sent it to Tchad Blake to tidy up. I know you don’t need the behind the scenes details so I won’t repeat myself on the next one.

Lovely 🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️🌹♥️Chrissie Hynde 🥇

[@joachimziemen7805]

Danke, Chrissie Hynde und James Walbourne, für diese bukolischen Variationen großer Dylan-Songs, die nicht aus dem üblichen Best-of-Fundus stammen. Ihre Interpretationen und filmische Umsetzung machen deutlich, was wirklich zählt. Bleibt zu hoffen, dass wir uns ihrer zu Beherzigung erinnern, wenn die viel beschworene „Normalität“ nach Corona zurückkehrt und wir wieder unbegrenzt ungebremst am Sein vorbei leben können.

[@nov20five]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is awesome!

[@donmakowichuk9905]

I've probably listened to this 40 Times. It just keeps getting better.

[@wanderinggeri8477]

Same.

[@davidstokes7764]

I always liked this song from Shot of Love; but you've made this one your own. Great cover!

[@kabooby0]

This is such a phenomenal cover. The final verse is particularly awe inspiring. I'm not religious myself, but I appreciate the depth of the lyricism here.

[@MrSunlander]

A spark of real sentimental energy. This series is memorable.

[@ByGodfrey]

Great song. Great version. Great video. Long live the lockdown!

[@breathize]

Thank you for turning me on to a Bob Dylan song I was not familiar with and doing it so beautiful.

[@michelepagani4282]

Great great cover of one on Dylan's most unknown masterpieces

[@raywood4223]

Asking myself to not write is like asking me not to breath. I am glad for you all, and music is very healing. I am now disabled and stuck in my apartment as more and more I hear the sounds of reopening or already open. Thanks for the tunes June 😁 ✌️🙇

[@hebrewenglishbibleread9941]

A hidden gem off one of Dylan's most underrated albums! Thanks! Note: the director in me would have had the young man at 0:27 playing along, playing the chord changes as you glide past him.

[@paulblanchet542]

Thanks so much for doing this, Chrissie!!

[@shanespaulding1163]

Thank

[@seaweedhero1707]

I was in your presence for an hour or so Or was it a day? I truly don’t know Where the sun never set, where the trees hung low By that soft and shining sea Did you respect me for what I did Or for what I didn’t do, or for keeping it hid? Did I lose my mind when I tried to get rid Of everything you see? In the summertime, ah in the summertime In the summertime, when you were with me I got the heart and you got the blood We cut through iron and we cut through mud Then came the warnin’ that was before the flood That set everybody free Fools they made a mock of sin Our loyalty they tried to win But you were closer to me than my next of kin When they didn’t want to know or see In the summertime, ah in the summertime In the summertime when you were with me Strangers, they meddled in our affairs Poverty and shame was theirs But all that sufferin’ was not to be compared With the glory that is to be And I’m still carrying the gift you gave It’s a part of me now, it’s been cherished and saved It’ll be with me unto the grave And then unto eternity In the summertime, ah in the summertime In the summertime when you were with me bobdylan.com/songs/summertime

[@BrianMillerConcerts]

Some of us like reading the behind the scenes details.

[@theoldpartoftown7739]

Chrissie you've got #6 in the series repeated in your KZbin playlist. Thought you might like to know...

[@Mark-fs7ok]

Great video! I'd love to know where I can get a chair like the one he's sitting on at his computer.

[@AVOLdesign]

Fantastic idea, thanks a lot! Can I request "Silvio"? And do check out Howlin' Wolf's original version of "Smokestack Lightnin'", the song "Silvio" is based on. The Cramps used it as the basis for "Primitive". The stripped-down format would also be perfect for "Changing Of The Guards", the "southern zone" version of "Tangled Up In Blue" (Brussels 1984 audience recording only), "Man In The Long Black Coat", "Things Have Changed", "Scarlet Town" and "Pay In Blood". Also check out "Blind Willie McTell" and the way Dylan used the Band's arrangement off "Jericho" (1993) when he started to play the song live in 1997.

[@arthurdinucci]

Was a drone used to do the filming? Whatever/however - it was magical.

[@PatrickLucienmarieLeGrand]

I love 😇😊🎩🐶🐰🐓

[@maidonian68]

[@loriscunado3607]

I would love to know where this was filmed. It looks like Herefordshire or Shropshire or Powys. It is a wonderful song and this version is absolutely right and how it should be.

[@cliveward7346]

[@mapple432]

[@PoorHoward9]
