Description
Grew partly out of an exploration of the possibility of Dylan's writing music for a play by the great poet Archibald MacLeish. The project never ended up working out, but a few of the songs survived, and created the foundation for this album. New Morning is filled out with love songs, pop songs, pastorals like Winterlude; as well as the funny, deadpan If Dogs Run Free; making a charming, endearing record.

Not a man generally considered an orator or a raconteur, Bob Dylan more usually lets his music and lyrics do the talking. And -- apart from a period early in his career when he adopted a rather facetious and cheeky persona, funny at the time but wisely dropped by his mid-20s -- he might be considered a bit of a recluse when it comes to speaking in public or to the media. The contents of this fascinating DVD therefore may well come as a pleasant surprise...
