Notes
The interview was published in Rolling Stone magazine no. 47, 29 November 1969. Here’s a reprint.
In the beginning of the article, Wenner
writes, "The interview took place on a Thursday afternoon in New York City
at my hotel, right around the corner from the funeral home where Judy Garland
was being inspected by ten thousand people, who formed lines around several
city blocks. We were removed from all that activity, but somehow it seemed
appropriate enough that Judy Garland’s funeral coincided with the
interview." Judy Garland passed away on Sunday, June 22, 1969. From
Wikipedia, "...Deans traveled with her remains to New York City 26 June
where an estimated 20,000 people lined up to pay their respects at the Frank E.
Campbell Funeral Chapel in Manhattan..." The interview was therefore most
probably recorded 26 June 1969 and published 26 November 1969.
15 minutes of excerpts posted on Jann Wenner’s site June 2010.
Mono recording, 15 minutes.

Notes
Questions asked by BBC reporter Ronnie Burns.
Originally broadcast 27 or 28 August 1969 by BBC-TV South in the programme SOUTH TODAY, in more complete form, however only brief excerpts were retained and the original videotape was erased.
All circulating recordings are from clips broadcast by BBC TV South on 5 January 5 1982 and 21 October 1983.
There’s a transcript in Fourth Time Around magazine #3, page 13.
Two further
excerpts emerged from BBC South archives in 2016, the transcript of the four
circulating excerpts is as follows:
|
Ronnie Burns |
Why have you chosen the Isle Of Wight to make your first public appearance for some
time? |
|
Bob Dylan |
I wanted to see the home
of Alfred Lord Tennyson. |
|
Burns |
Why? |
|
Dylan |
Just curious. |
|
Burns |
Would you like to state out
your general views on the situation of
drug-taking among teenagers and young people these days? |
|
Dylan |
I don't have any of those views, I
wish I did, I'd be glad to share them with you. I think everyone should
lead their own life, y'know. |
|
Burns |
You used to, I believe, make
public pronouncements of your views, things like Vietnam. We notice, in
certain quarters, that you haven't been doing this recently, making your
views known on big political and international issues, is this deliberate
policy on your part? |
|
Dylan |
No, I think that's more
rumour than fact, I f you check your old newspapers you won't find too many
statements I made on those issues. |
|
Burns |
I've heard here today that
some of your fans say that the new Bob Dylan is a bit of a square, is
that true?' |
|
Dylan |
(laughs) you'll have to ask
the fans. |
|
Unnamed reporter |
There could be some sort of
drugs problem, are you concerned about it, or do you feel it doesn't concern
you at all? |
|
Dylan |
I hope there isn't any. |
Incomplete mono TV recordings, 3 minutes.
