Sometimes this respect can gel in the way. It m akes
listening to a live Dylan album, like After the Flood or
Jlcrd Rein painful.
Dylan knows about the myth, and like everything else
he seems to have a perspective on it.
On llsrd Rain, fix instance, he can take one. of his
finest love songs, "Lay Lady Lay," and insert totally new
lyrics and melody line. He adds the words, . . . lets stop
" this dance and go upstairs...''
It's like a good swift kick in the gut
You know that behind those words is a mischievous
Dylan smile. Knowing how popular "Lay Lady Lay is
and has been, he can twist it and change it any way he
likes because it's his song and not ours.
Drives the point home
He drives the point home every time he opens his
mouth in public. .
A Dylan concert is an assault, at least from what we
can tell from his last two live recordings. All the songs
sound alike, the guitars arc out of tune and Dylan moans
and strains with lyrics that most of the audience knows by
heart.
Even the frustrations of a true Dylan fanatic are out
weighed by his sheer power. If nothing else, his concert
albums reaffirm that Dylan continues to grow.
. .. Aey&Ifatidxt
If Dylan were to return to Lincoln, or just about any
where near here, Vd beat doors down and pay ridiculous
ticket prices to see him. I also would probably sell my
sister to Idi Amin for a shot at a bslcony seat.
I'm not sure where the myth ends and Dylan begins
but once you are hooked, it's a long way home. For the
mere price of a ticket, you get a piece of a legend, and
that's worth its weight in gold.

Slarz, Head East, Starcastle, Heart,
and Boston. All of these rock bands have
one thing in common they've all released
successful debut albums in the last year.
Boston is the newest member of what
might be called "The Can't Miss Rock
Band Club."
This means now, more than ever, a rock
band's potential is being heavily judged
on the basis of its first album.
In Boston's case, this trend turns out
to be an immediate advantage.
Boston's debut album, Boston, is an
excellent rock and roll album. However,
how good will its next album be?
ZV The point is this-it's not us
usual for a
good rock band to come out with an out
standing debut album.
Before most groups land a recording
contract, they normally spend two or three
years playing in bars and local dubs.
As a result, a band's debut album in
many cases represents several years of song
writing and playing together. Thus, when
"new" groups are given recording contracts
and are ushered into the studio by anxious
record company executives, they have
quite an arsenal of material to draw from.
Tonight, Boston will charge into Persh
ing Auditorium with a full head of steam.
The group is riding a big wave, and some
observers feel it is headed toward the
rock and roll hall of fame.

The question should be, is Boston that
good?
Boston undeniably has assembled a tal
ented group of musicians, and Boston is
certainly among the best of the many fine
debut albums released recently.
But the real key to Boston's future lies
in the quality of its future material.
The band's exceptional debut places it
in a difficult situation. To make this
situation more complicated, its record
company is acutely aware that Boston is
hot property.
To insure that Boston remains hot, its
record company will want to keep Boston
in the public's mind.
As a result Boston is touring the United
States extensively. Before long, the com
pany will want Boston to get back into the
recording studtio. Then Boston wont have
three years material to work with.
If Boston rises to the challenge it will
have established itself as a potent force on
the rock musk: scene.
Exactly what direction Boston's future
will take may be revealed when the group
appears in Lincoln with Black Sabbath
tonight.
It should be interesting to see whether
Boston will choose to play any new mater
ial, and whether that material will be of
the same quality as the music on its debut
album. '
