"Even Post-Structuralists Oughta Have the Pre-War Blues". His famous line to his producer is the title of "Is it Rolling Bob?: A Reggae Tribute to Bob Dylan" where the 'rolling' is obviously a reference to a joint. It has been subsequently recorded by Catherine Howe for her 1975 album Harry, by Marshall Chapman for her 1982 album Take It on Home, by Steve Gibbons for his 1992 album On the Loose and by Sue Foley on her 1995 album Big City Blues. ĭylan resurrected the song, and substantially rewrote the lyrics, for his 2021 concert film Shadow Kingdom: The Early Songs of Bob Dylan. According to his official website, Dylan has played the song live over 125 times through its most recent outing on the Rough and Rowdy Ways World Wide Tour in 2021. In the early 2000s it again became a frequent show opener, this time in a stirring rock and roll arrangement. In 19 it was frequently used to open the set. Since then, it has been played occasionally on the Never Ending Tour. Live performances ĭylan first played "To Be Alone with You" live in concert more than 20 years after it was written, on Octoat the Tower Theater in Philadelphia on the Never Ending Tour. Maybe when it was released people were disappointed to hear Dylan making an album of country-soul toe-tappers and singing it in this oddly-entrancing muted honk, but he followed his whims and, come on, it’s Bob Dylan - he can (and should) do whatever the hell he wants". įield Music's David Brewis cited it as his favorite Dylan song in a 2021 Stereogum article, calling it "slinky" and "sexy" and noting, "The band are crisp and soulful and the vocal lines are punctuated by understated stinging guitar. Thomas Ward at AllMusic called it "(p)erhaps the sweetest song on Nashville Skyline", featuring "one of Dylan's prettiest melodies.a gorgeous, traditional country bridge (shifting to the V of the chord, then adding the II inversion) and a genuinely affecting, modest vocal". Music critic Michael Gray notes that " Night Time Is the Right Time" is a blues lyric that may have been based on a much older song and that it is surprising to find such a lyric in one of Nashville Skyline's country songs. The bridge of the song begins with the line "They say that nighttime is the right time". Years after recording it, Dylan commented that "I was trying to grasp something that would lead me on to where I thought I should be, and it didn't go anywhere". Gill suggests that both the arrangement and Dylan's delivery imitate Lewis' style, and that the final verse, which combines carnal and religious lyrics, is also in the style of Lewis' songs. Andy Gill suggests that Dylan was influenced by Jerry Lee Lewis on this song. īefore the song starts, Dylan is heard asking his producer, Bob Johnston, "Is it rolling, Bob?" It is a simple love song, with lyrics that Allmusic's Thomas Ward compares to a nursery rhyme. It was recorded in eight takes, during which Dylan increased the backing instrumentation to include multiple guitars in addition to a dobro, a piano and an organ. It was one of four songs Dylan had written for the album before the recording sessions, the others being " Lay Lady Lay", " I Threw It All Away" and " One More Night". "To Be Alone with You" was the first song Dylan recorded for Nashville Skyline, on February 13, 1969.
