Der Begriff des Cuesheets findet man auch in der Computersprache und hat mit Metadaten zu tun. In der Konzertbranche ist es das, was Musiker und Techniker als „Einsatzplan“, bzw. „Ablaufplan“ eines Konzertes ansehen.

Dylan hielt sich nicht immer daran, bis er irgendwann einmal keine mehr einsetzte. Cohen verwendete sie bei der letzten Tour als eine Art roter Faden ,

NEW YORK CITY & Bob Dylan’s GreenwichVillage.
,,I waved goodbyc, stcpped out onto the hard snow. The biting wind hit mc in thc face. At last I was here in ! New York City,“ beschreibt Dylan seine Ankunft in seiner Autobiographie in New York am 24. Januar 1961. Von da an wurde New York und hier insbesondere das Künstlerviertel Greenwich Village zum Dreh- und Angekpunkt seiner Karriere.

Von da an spielte er regelmäßig in den Literaten-Cafés wie z.B. Gerde’s Folk City in der West Fourth Street; The Gaslight und The Commons und im The Bitter End and the Village Gate in der Bleecker Street. 1964 nahm er mit Suze Rotolo ein Apartment in der 161 West Fourth Street. Später lebte er auch im Earle Hotel, Washington Square mit Joan Baez und 1965 zog er ins Chelsea Hotel mit Sara Lownds und ihrer Tochter Maria.

1. Three full press conferences
THREE FULL PRESS CONFERENCE RECORDINGS + BONUS 1966 INTERVIEW WITH DYLAN ON TOP FORM For the casual observer, however academic their study, to appreciate the characteristics of Bob Dylan s personality to the fullest degree possible, the student of such matters can only get so far by listening to the man s music. In fact an early exponent in this field of endeavour – the notorious A. J. Weberman – failed majestically when attempting to uncover the real Dylan by using this method alone. He would later of course rifle through Dylan s private trash in an attempt to augment his early findings, but fared little better when using this underhand method. But to hear the man speaking in length in response to pointed questions from the media, reveals many, often vaguely understood, concepts and theories that Dylan has formulated and used in his work across the years. Opportunity to hear such opinions however are rare – Bob is historically against press intrusion and has at times become hostile and belittling towards members of the fourth estate; who can forget the hilarious, albeit somewhat unkind, reaction the young journalist shown questioning Dylan alongside Alan Price in Don t Look Back received?. But at press conference, although rare occurrences too throughout Dylan s career, Bob reacts a little differently and will usually be receptive to questions and generally good natured. Three such press gatherings – in San Francisco and Los Angeles in 1965 and in Rome in 2001 – reveal more about the man than most one-to-one conversations with journalists ever do, and provide some fertile material for the budding researcher or the interested party. Full recordings of all these events are included in this delightful boxed set, along with a bonus interview given to Canadian broadcaster and journalist Martin Bronstein in 1966, during which Bob was on his best behaviour and was here too a revealing subject. Packaged elegantly with booklets and further sleeve notes by Derek Barker from the Isis Magazine, this set will prove and enticing item for anyone with a hunger for discovering more about this enigmatic personality than is generally known.
