This strange item is a very poor quality 70s photocopy of a 13 page typing by Stephen Pickering. It is supposed to present the lyrics of six Dylan songs transcripted from a 1971 tape that, if it exists, has still not surfaced.
The six songs are:
- THE BLUES FROM THEFT AND BLOOD (2 verses),
- I WILL MAKE MY STAND RIGHT HERE (7 verses and chorus),
- LOVER, I'M LEAVING YOU (11 verses),
- I HAVE HEARD A STORY TOLD (THE BEING SONG) (6 verses plus a long more recitative-looking text),
- IT'S JUST A WAR, (4 verses and chorus)
- ON THE MAIN LINE (13 verses)
There is a doubt on the authenticity of these 'Dylan' lyrics; you can see them below.
