From what I've read and know about Bob Dylan, I wouldn't class it as "memory" in the traditional sense of the word. He says (and I believe him) that by the time he comes to write a song out for the first time he already knows it all in his head. When answering your very query he said that the lyrics are visual to him, so I guess he doesn't have to track through them line by line like the rest of us. I think what puts him above all other songwriters and poets etc is that his poetry is born out of performance, listening and playing in turn. Perfectly matching the written poetry of the beats to the rhythms of folk and blues music surely stands as one of music's great moments. Maybe the closest thing the 20th century had to Homer

In March 1986, Dylan told his audience in Japan: "This is a song I wrote a while back in response to people who ask me questions all the time. You just get tired of that every once in a while. You just don't want to answer no more questions. I figure a person’s life speaks for itself, right? So, every once in a while you got to do this kind of thing, you got to put somebody in their place... So this is my response to something that happened over in England. I think it was about '63, '64. Anyway the song still holds up. Seems to be people around still like that. So I still sing it. It's called 'Ballad Of A Thin Man'."

I've always thought it was 10 years ahead of it's time, a song about an anonymous man (Mr. Jones) walking into a gay "tea room" where men are engaged in various sex acts. Someone is naked, someone is a sword swallower, someone hands someone else a bone. Meanwhile Dylan is ripping the hypocrisy of a society that pretends this scene doesn't exist.

@John Walsh What a fascinating interpretation. I did once read Ginsberg introduced Bob to the underground homosexual culture that was thriving throughout Europe in the 1960s. Like you say, maybe Bob is letting us peak through the curtain into a world very few would have experienced. When I read your comment Kubrick came to mind, seems like a surreal scene from one of his films. Amazing how Bob can still blow our minds even now, it must have been truly revolutionary at the time!

British people were under government rations until 1958 and couldn't get enough dairy products to live on or feed their children because the British government was forced into rationing these imports in order to make sure that no one in the country starved.

You try so hard but you don't understand Just what you will say when you get home Because something is happening here but you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? You raise up your head and you ask, "Is this where it is?" And somebody points to you and says, "It's his" And you say, "What's mine?" and somebody else says, "Well, what is?" And you say, "Oh my God, am I here all alone?" But something is happening and you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? You hand in your ticket and you go watch the geek Who immediately walks up to you when he hears you speak And says, "How does it feel to be such a freak?" And you say, "Impossible!" as he hands you a bone And something is happening here but you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? You have many contacts among the lumberjacks To get you facts when someone attacks your imagination But nobody has any respect, anyway they already expect you to all give a check To tax-deductible charity organizations Ah, you've been with the professors and they've all liked your looks With great lawyers you have discussed lepers and crooks You've been through all of F. Scott Fitzgerald's books You're very well-read, it's well-known But something is happening here and you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you and then he kneels He crosses himself and then he clicks his high heels And without further notice, he asks you how it feels And he says, "Here is your throat back, thanks for the loan" And you know something is happening but you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? Now, you see this one-eyed midget shouting the word "Now" And you say, "For what reason?" and he says, "How" And you say, "What does this mean?" and he screams back, "You're a cow! Give me some milk or else go home" And you know something's happening but you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones? Well, you walk into the room like a camel, and then you frown You put your eyes in your pocket and your nose on the ground There ought to be a law against you comin' around You should be made to wear earphones 'Cause something is happening and you don't know what it is Do you, Mr. Jones?

We gotta keep these old Dylan videos up! Really, sincerely mean that. Thank you for posting. These recordings, they're so insane, haunting, amazing, and should (and will) outlast and 'out win' most singer songwriters(ing) of any generation inspired to write and perform what they perceive and deal with on the inside and attempt to poetically express. I know we like Bowie, Bruce, Led Zeppelin, the Clash, PJ, but Jesus, all of them know this man. Jesus knows this man. Thank you. And that film and it's soundtrack, thank God for Martin Scorsese.

🙏If I did not subscribe before, I would do so within 10 seconds. Only today [2023/12/26] did this clip reach my retinas and eardrums. Reason for me to celebrate with the following inscription: "Thank you everyone, for since decades I have longed to be able to enjoy recordings of this most authentic possible ."

He has never told the truth about who Mr. Jones is... He probably doesn't even know himself. He's one of the greatest of all time. And the live version of this song is probably the greatest piece of music I've ever heard.

Dear Swingin Pig - What a brilliant job, mixing disparate videos and audios together. You've created the best ever 66 Thin Man, bar none. Dylan fans will know how many choices you've made to create this, and how astute those choices are - a hundred times better than 'I'm Not There', for a start... Thank you SO much, it's hugely appreciated. What a f----ing masterpiece.

Wonderful! Love those entitled "fans" who thought they had the right to tell Dylan what to sing. Witness at the Free Trade Hall - "Judas" ... "Liar" dylan retorts, turns to the band, and says "Rolling Stone - and play it FUCKING loud" :) Thanks for this, it's a delight!
