Thread Name: The Man Who Yelled 'Judas!' to Bob Dylan
Subject: RE: The Man Who Yelled 'Judas!' to Bob Dylan
Schweik, at http://folksong.org.nz/fwltgold/ Paul Metsers is quoted as saying,
As far as cover versions go, Nic Jones' version on his "Penguin Eggs" album is by far the best known and the only one to have earned me anything. I've never received any royalties from Mary Black.
No mention of Dylan. Elsewhere on that page, it says,
...Bob Dylan (bootleg 1991 CD "Himself") who sung it as 'The Miners Song' at Youngstown Ohio, in Nov 1992. This is the only song written by a New Zealander that Dylan has done, and that single concert the only known public performance by Dylan of this song
So is Paul Metsers upset that Dylan only sang it once? or that he got the title (and some of the lyrics) wrong? or that someone made a bootleg of Dylan's performance?
