Because you got to realize
you can kill somebody with kindness, too.

:59:12
God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
:59:15
Abe said, "Man, you must be putting me on"
:59:19
God say, "No" Abe say, "What?"
:59:22
God say,
"You can do what you want, Abe, but

:59:25
"Next time you see me coming
you better run"

:59:34
Well, Abe says,
"Where do you want this killing done?"

:59:37
God says, "Out on Highway 61"
:59:41
I walked in the studio
and he was out there in a corner...

:59:44
and I walked up and I said,
"Bob, I'm Bob Johnston".

:59:45
He said, "How you doing?"
And he smiled at me.

:59:47
All I remember is Dylan doing that
and starting in...

:59:51
and from that moment,
I really have no memory.

:59:56
Nobody ever counted off for Dylan...
:59:57
he always did what the fuck he wanted to.
:59:59
And I always just got the sound pretty well.
And he seemed to love the sound.

You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand

1:00:10
You see somebody naked
And you say, "Who is that man?"

1:00:15
I was just caught in this whirlwind of...
1:00:19
You know, of being tacked on to this music
that was going to be forever...

1:00:24
and being involved in it.
And knowing that it was going to be forever.

1:00:28
Because something is happening here
1:00:30
But you don't know what it is
1:00:35
The music actually changed by,
I think, the word is freedom.

1:00:38
Everything was changing.
It wasn't like four songs a session.

1:00:41
There wasn't any clock.
I took all the clocks down.

1:00:44
Nobody had a fucking clock in there.
1:00:46
It's just like, "Play some music".
"What about this thing? What about this?"

1:00:49
We're recording 86845. Number one.

Einstein, disguised as Robin Hood
1:00:56
With his memories in his trunk
