When I saw the theme I thought…….can’t sing, write unintelligible lyrics, strum guitar badly……..who on earth can I hope to emulate?? So here is my take on Dylan! The Ghost Of Caviar. :D :-X James Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: mlit on September 04, 2007, 11:36:05 PM hehe :-> that worked out quite nice actually :) well done
Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: kara on September 05, 2007, 07:12:23 AM Hi James,
This is a great entry, it definitifly sounds like Dylan Good work, good luck with the contest k Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: folderol on September 05, 2007, 04:00:20 PM Pretty close to the mark, but don't you think you're singing a bit too much ON key ;D

This is a flawless replica of Dylan's sound & style,but you should include written lyrics with it,as I barely understood a word. ;D Very impressive stuff. 8) Elwood Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: offthewall on September 05, 2007, 09:35:22 PM ::)
Quote but you should include written lyrics with it The Ghost of Caviar (?) Well he walked across the ocean And he jumped from rock to tree And he tumbled on the highways And lived on honey bees He looked a lot like poison Drained from a desert rat I thought I saw his wizened face Beneath the crooked hat He knows what we all are The ghost of Caviar We watch him leap from buildings A comet flashes by The hundred thousand creatures bow Before his baleful eye He knows what we all are The ghost of Caviar The crocodile lies waiting On a rusty railroad track The pirate flag flies overhead The ghost is coming back….. ::) ;) James Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: Laguna Rising on September 06, 2007, 09:35:50 PM Pretty close to the mark, but don't you think you're singing a bit too much ON key ;D ;D Very good track, and excellent vocal performance. I like it. I like the lyrics, too This month seems hard to come up with something good... (it's hard to choose... :-\) Cheers Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: folderol on September 07, 2007, 10:30:34 PM Trying to do sensible reviews is even harder ???

Thanks guys.....that was really some fun!! I only wish I had had time to rope in young Wyatt with his harmickee to get that *real* Dylan sound. 8) ;) James Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: Wyatt on October 01, 2007, 11:20:47 PM hehe..
..wish we'd a thought of it sooner. ..haven't played Dylan since '64-'65, but couldn't resist bangin one out for ya. Wyatt Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: offthewall on October 03, 2007, 09:36:13 PM ;D
Just for posterity, and the sake of 'finishing off', here is how the song should have sounded if I had not been rushed at the time. Our own Wyatt on the harmonickee..... :D ;) James Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: kara on October 04, 2007, 06:38:39 AM Certainly a shame you guys didn't think of that before the end of the contest. This song could have won I think.
Nice touch Wyatt. Now it is a realy Dylan song, gosh I loved that guy when I was a young guy 8) k Title: Re: KVR September entry Post by: Wyatt on October 04, 2007, 10:32:36 AM Certainly a shame you guys didn't think of that before the end of the contest.
