Transcript | Dylan The Thief

And it wasn’t ever intending to hit Dylan with the bowling pin or anything, but he was really gonna do the bit.
“I’m gonna beat the hell out of you. Where are my records?” And Dylan was very scared.
Woody’s records were almost impossible to find. Um, they didn’t have any of his records in record stores, so… I don’t remember, you know, buying any records.
I only found out later that he had borrowed 400 records from Tony Glover, or something like that, which he still hasn’t returned. And things like that.
Paul was a folk music scholar. He didn’t play at all. He had a whole lot of records which probably couldn’t be found anywhere else in the Midwest, except at Paul’s house.
Once I knew they’d be away for the weekend, so I went over there and helped myself to a bunch of old records.
About 25 records disappeared, mostly the stuff that Dylan was listening to. And we sort of figured out that he’d taken them.
Those records were extremely hard to find. They were like hen’s teeth. Um… If you came across them, somebody like myself, who was a musical expeditionary, um, you know, you just would have to, um, immerse yourself in them.
So we started trying to track Dylan down. We tried the fraternity house where he had once been. No luck there. We got another address, and then yet another.
And everybody said; “Boy, this kid must be popular.” You know? “You’re about the tenth guy looking for him.” You know, at every place we went. And I don’t know how we finally found him, but we got a current apartment.
This was a John Wayne production number, that John did. He got a bowling pin, and he got a big cigar, and John was 6’4” or something like this, and, um, and it wasn’t ever intending to hit Dylan with the bowling pin or anything, but he was really gonna do the bit.
John just started waving the bowling pin over his head, and just saying; “I’m gonna beat the hell out of you. Where are my records?”
And Dylan was very scared for the first time around this routine went. But he maintained his cool somehow, and it somehow settled into sort of an absurdist drama where they would sort of talk…
Dylan would say something interesting and John would get interesting and they’d start to talk and they’d start to sort of like each other a little bit, and then John would remember why he was there, and he’d start brandishing the pin again, and they’d play the whole scene out again.
