Bob Dylan – Tom Thumb

Bob Dylan, Arlanda Airport April 29 1966 Stockholm - Sweden

There’s a nice little monologue about Tom Thumb. “This is about a painter — down in Mexico City, who travelled from North Mexico up to Del Rio, Texas all the time, his name’s Tom Thumb, and uh, right now he’s about 125 years old but he’s still going, and uh, everybody likes him a lot down there, he’s got lots of friends, and uh, this is when he was going through his BLUE period, of painting, and uh, he’s made COUNTLESS amount of paintings, you couldn’t think of ’em all. This is his blue period painting, I just dedicate this song to him, it’s called Just Like Tom Thumb’s BLUES. [very odd woman screaming, provoking audience laughter and applause] You, you know Tom Thumb?”
