In the music business since the 1950s, the legendary singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Bob Dylan has had the chance to meet many incredible artists over the decades. Constantly touring for more than 60 years, he has had numerous opportunities to watch other shows and spend time with fellow musicians. However, there is one artist he has said he admires both as a musician and as a person. The musician Bob Dylan said he liked as a person and musician The musician is the late legendary American musician Richie Havens, who Dylan first met still in the 60s. Both of them were born in 1941 but Bob started his musical career in 1957, while Havens only started in 1965. Although he was also a songwriter, Havens recorded a lot of covers, including some Bob Dylan songs. One of them was "Just Like a Woman" and in an interview in 1975 with Mary Travers, Bob praised his version. He also said that he loved Havens and called him a king. "Roberta Flack did 'Just Like A Woman' but she got the words wrong. She changed the words.
 I don’t think she changed them. I think she just got ‘em wrong. And I know Nina Simone did 'Just Like A Woman' as well. Yeah. I think she makes a lyric change there. Yeah." "Personally, I don’t understand why anybody would want to do that song, except me. Richie Havens did it. Now Richie, it made sense coming from Richie. I like Richie. I love his work. That’s an understatement, yeah. Yeah. I love his work, I love him as a human being. I love him as a musician. He’s like a king," Bob Dylan said. Richie Havens was active until 2012, one year before his death at the age of 72, a victim of a heart attack. He released 21 studio albums during his career and was also famous for his incredible performance at the Woodstock festival in 1969. Dylan also learned a few tricks with Richie Havens https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnaJ2lYwA_s&pp=ygUfcmljaGVpIGhhdmVucyBqdXN0IGxpa2UgYSB3b21hbg%3D%3D During the early years of that decade, Havens became one of the most praised artists of the Village folk music scene and he ended up signing with Bob Dylan's manager. Curiously, in an interview with NPR in 2004, Dylan recalled that he learned a really good trick with Havens. It was a really good way to make more money when they were playing. "One singer I crossed paths with a lot, Richie Havens, always had a nice-looking girl with him who passed the hat and I noticed that he always did well. Sometimes she passed two hats. If you didn't have some kind of trick, you'd come off with an invisible presence, which wasn't good." "A couple of times, I hooked up with a girl I knew from the Café Wha?. (She was) a waitress who was good to the eye. We'd go from place to place, I'd play and she'd take up collection, wear a funny little bonnet, heavy black mascara, low laced blouse — looked almost naked from the waist up under a cape like coat." "I'd split the money with her later, but it was too much of a hassle to do it all the time. I still made more when she was with me than when I was working on my own," Bob Dylan said. Other Dylan songs Havens covered were "License To Kill", "Tombstone Blues" and "Maggie's Farm".The post The musician Bob Dylan said he liked as a person and musician appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.

The Illinois State Supreme Court has dismissed Jussie Smollett's conviction for lying about a hate crime in a ruling issued Thursday. In a surprising 5-0 decision, the Illinois Supreme Court ordered the case be dismissed, ruling that an agreement reached between Smollett and Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx to drop criminal charges in exchange for a fine and community service should have stood. The court said in its ruling, "We are aware that this case has generated significant...

As casting for the upcoming "Harry Potter" TV series gets underway, more information has come out about controversial author J.K. Rowling's level of involvement in the show, which will stream on Max. According to a statement from HBO provided to Hollywood trade publications Variety and TheWrap, Rowling's "contribution has been invaluable" to the company and the "Potter" show "will only benefit from her involvement" as executive producer.

Former talk show host Ellen DeGeneres has reportedly had it with the United States and has already moved into a home in rural England with her wife Portia De Rossi following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory. Sources with knowledge told The Wrap that the 66-year-old comedian/actress and Rossi purchased the home in South West England — two hours outside of London — before voters in America went to the polls and voted to send Trump back to the White House.

Ukraine fired long-range missiles into Russia for the first time Tuesday, marking the 1,000th day of the Russia-Ukraine War.

What dog owner wouldn’t want to jam out to Queen with their pup while the world watches? Of course, our version probably wouldn’t be nearly as impressive as what Roni Sagi and her black and white border collie, aptly named Rhythm, did for “America's Got Talent” on Tuesday. First off, audiences knew they’d instantly be in for a treat when Sagi and Rhythm recreated the band’s famous pose for “Bohemian Rhapsody.” But it only got better from there, in a routine that featured a mash-up of “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Don’t Stop Me Now.” The dance duo wowed judges and audiences alike with synchronized steps, turns, flips…and even a cool bridge pose trick (seriously, this was a dog owner’s dream come to life). Simon Cowell jokingly asked “How do we know that the dog is a real dog?” because Rhythm was just that good. Sagi would later end up sharing that Rhythm earned his name from an early age, already tapping his little feet on her bed at only 6 weeks old. By that point, Sagi had already had experience training therapy dogs, which undoubtedly gave her a good foundation for working with her little “tornado storm.” Perhaps it should come as that much of a surprise that Rhythm is so gifted. After all, border collies are notorious for being able to pick up skills quickly, and there have been several border collies that have broken world records—including records for intelligence, balance and skateboarding (yes, really). But Sagi seems to credit their chemistry less on Rhythm’s species traits, and more on his individual personality. “It’s so much fun to have a partner that wants [to perform] as much as you,” she said. “He wants to do it all, and he wants to do it now, and he wants to do it as good as he can.” Down in the comments, online viewers shared their praises—and awe—for Rhythm’s performance. “This was the most amazing dog act I've seen!” one person wrote. “That precious dog Rhythm is SO talented and smart!!! I don’t understand how he knows what to do when his back is to her?!! This dog is truly dancing and just extremely talented!!!” added another. Still another said, “This dog is the most energetic and enthusiastic I've ever seen.” Of course, Rhythm wasn't getting all the love. One person wrote, “I don't usually like dog acts, but this was impressive. Roni is very creative with what she does and obviously a great dancer herself and trainer.” Maybe we can’t get all dogs to perform quite on this level, but it does show us just how amazing man’s best friend really is.

Ever stop to think how bizarre it is that the United States is one of the only countries to not use the metric system? Or how it uses the word “football” to describe a sport that, unlike fútbol, barely uses the feet at all? What must our forefathers have been thinking as they were creating this brave new world? Wonder no further. All this and more is explored in a recent Saturday Night Live sketch that folks are hailing as an “instant classic.”The hilarious clip takes place during the American Revolution, where George Washington rallies his troops with an impassioned speech about his future hopes for their fledgling country…all the while poking fun at America’s nonsensical measurements and language rules.Like seriously, liters and milliliters for soda, wine and alcohol but gallons, pints, and quarters for milk and paint? And no “u” after “o” in words like “armor” and “color” but “glamour” is okay? The inherent humor in the scene is only amplified by comedian and host Nate Bargatze’s understated, deadpan delivery of Washington. Bargatze had quite a few hits during his hosting stint—including an opening monologue that acted as a mini comedy set—but this performance takes the cake. Watch: All in all, people have been applauding the sketch, noting that it harkened back to what “SNL” does best, having fun with the simple things.Here’s what folks are saying:“This skit is an instant classic. I think people will be referencing it as one of the all time best SNL skits for years.”“Dear SNL, whoever wrote this sketch, PLEASE let them write many many MANY more!”“Instantly one of my favorite SNL sketches of all time!!!”“I’m not lying when I say I have watched this sketch about 10 times and laughed just as hard every time.”“This may be my favorite sketch ever. This is absolutely brilliant.”There’s more where that came from. Catch even more of Bargatze’s “SNL” episode here. This article originally appeared last year.
