"When I Paint My Masterpiece"
 
: is a 1971 song written by Bob Dylan.
It was first recorded by The Band, who would release their version on Cahoots.
 
 
 
Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble,
Ancient footprints are everywhere.
You can almost think that you're seein' double
On a cold, dark night on the Spanish Stairs.
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room,
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece.
She promised that she'd be right there with me
When I paint my masterpiece.

Oh, the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum,
Dodging lions and wastin' time.
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see 'em,
Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb.
Train wheels runnin' through the back of my memory,
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese.
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece.

Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola.
Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola!

I left Rome and landed in Brussels,
On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried.
Clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin' muscles,
Everyone was there to greet me when I stepped inside.
Newspapermen eating candy
Had to be held down by big police.
Someday, everything is gonna be diff'rent

When I paint my masterpiece.

Hey palmfish, I'm really pleased you got this. Like I said earlier, I'm sure it will leave an impression on you, even though you're unlikely to listen to it often. I've had a number of 'moments' listening to it.

Please let us know how you get on with the 5th!

 
Thanks again for the recommendation amigomatt. I do see what you mean about "moments" (Gotterdammerung and parts of Sibelius' 5th symphony come to mind). I definitely need to spend more time with it to fully appreciate it though...
 
I will report back on the 5th when I get it.

what album is this?

 

[Hutnicks]

 
Steve Hoffman remastered. Well done but does lose some of the original echo which made thier stuff a little haunting.
 
I also find it rather hilarious that a band with only 2 albums released gets the "greatest hits" treatment.
