Dylan and the Band in Austin, Texas - 1965.

This rough version of “You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere” by Bob Dylan & The Band is clearly a work in progress. Dylan’s improvised lyrics are exceedingly surreal, even for him. It’s quite funny and a fascinating peek into the way songs often get made - do the vocals on the fly as you shape the tune around them.

“Now look here deer soup, you best feed the cat
The cat needs feedin’, you’re the one to do it…”

“Look here you buncha basement noise
You ain’t no punching bag..”

Hey, it’s Dylan doing Dylan.
