“In fact, he thought so highly of his Gibson J-200 that he included it on the cover portrait of his 1969 album, Nashville Skyline. It probably helped that the guitar, which he would later play at the Isle of Wight Festival [August 1969], was a gift from George Harrison.” - lespaul.com, February 18, 2010 “[W]hen he [Dylan] eventually went on stage [at the Isle of Wight Festival, 31 August 1969], he was excited, proudly brandishing his guitar like a schoolboy and beaming: ‘Look, I’ve got George’s [Harrison’s] guitar!’” - The Independent, May 29, 2015 “Harrison later gave his Gibson J-200 to his friend Bob Dylan, who can be seen holding it on the cover of the 1969 album Nashville Skyline. Elliott Landy, the photographer who took the shot of Dylan for that cover, remembers Dylan telling him that he was given the guitar by Harrison. Landy says Dylan wanted the guitar in the photo with him, tipping his hat as a thank-you to his friend for the generous gift.” - Beatles Gear: All The Fab Four’s Instruments From the Stage to the Studio by Andy Babiuk (x)

If you're travelin' in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

Oh she once was a true love of mine

See for me if her hair's hanging down

It curls and falls all down her breast

See for me that her hair's hanging down

That's the way I remember her best

If you go when the snowflakes falls

When the rivers freeze and summer ends

Please see for me if she's wearing a coat so warm

To keep her from the howlin' winds

If you're travelin' in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Please say "hello" to the one who lives there

Oh she was once a true love of mine

If you're travelin' in the north country fair

Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

Remember me to one who lives there

Oh she once was a true love of mine

A true love of mine

A true love of mine

True love of mine

A true love of mine

A true love of mine

She was once a true love of mine

Bob Dylan ֍ To Be Alone with You (1969)

To be alone with you Just you and me Now won't you tell me true Ain't that the way it oughta be To hold each other tight The whole night through Everything is always right When I'm alone with you

To be alone with you At the close of the day With only you in view While evening slips away It only goes to show That while life's pleasures be few The only one I know Is when I'm alone with you

They say that nighttime is the right time To be with the one you love Too many thoughts get in the way in the day But you're always what I'm thinkin' of

I wish the night were here Bringin' me all of your charms When only you are near To hold me in your arms I'll always thank the Lord When my working day's through I get my sweet reward To be alone with you

“My dad’s favorite number was 7, and a lot of things that he did were according to the number 7, whether he meant it or not. That was the highest honor I could have given a track on the album [Brainwashed], to put it track 7.” - Dhani Harrison, Brainwashed EPK

Track no. 7 series: “Behind That Locked Door” —

“I think that [‘Behind That Locked Door’] was very much influenced by Bob [Dylan]'s ‘Nashville Skyline’ [1969] period. I actually wrote that the night before the Isle of Wight Festival [in August 1969].” - George Harrison, Billboard, January 8, 2001

“‘Behind That Locked Door’ came from when Bob Dylan was playing at the Isle of Wight soon after his Nashville Skyline album. I wrote this song about him: ‘Why are you still crying? Your pain is now through Please forget those teardrops Let me take them from you The love you are blessed with This world’s waiting for So let out your heart please, please From behind that locked door’ It was a good excuse to do a country tune with pedal steel guitar.” - George Harrison, I Me Mine (1980)

Speaking of Nashville Skyline...

On the album cover, Dylan is pictured with George's Gibson J-200, a gift from George:

“In fact, he thought so highly of his Gibson J-200 that he included it on the cover portrait of his 1969 album, Nashville Skyline. It probably helped that the guitar, which he would later play at the Isle of Wight Festival [August 31, 1969], was a gift from George Harrison.” - lespaul.com, February 18, 2010

“[W]hen he [Dylan] eventually went on stage [at the Isle of Wight Festival, 31 August 1969], he was excited, proudly brandishing his guitar like a schoolboy and beaming: ‘Look, I’ve got George’s guitar!’” - The Independent, May 29, 2015

“Harrison later gave his Gibson J-200 to his friend Bob Dylan, who can be seen holding it on the cover of the 1969 album #NashvilleSkyline. Elliott Landy, the photographer who took the shot of Dylan for that cover, remembers Dylan telling him that he was given the guitar by Harrison. Landy says Dylan wanted the guitar in the photo with him, tipping his hat as a thank-you to his friend for the generous gift.” - Beatles Gear: All The Fab Four’s Instruments From The Stage To The Studio (2002) (x)

Love is all there is, it makes the world go ’round

Love and only love, it can’t be denied

No matter what you think about it

You just won’t be able to do without it

Take a tip from one who’s tried
