"Tangled Up in Blue" 

Bob Dylan and Blood on the Tracks...

 

 
Bob Dylan released "Blood on the Tracks" at a time when he and his wife Sara were going through separation. The album is widely considered to be Dylan's deepest and most personal work. The album covers all the different terms of love, including loss in Tangled Up in Blue, Anger in Idiot Wind, to acceptance in Buckets of Rain.

Dylan went on tour to play tracks from the album. The Rolling Thunder Revue became one of the most iconic images of live rock and roll in the history of popular music. Resembling a gypsy carousel, the band (including Scarlet O'Hara, whom Dylan picked up from the streets to play with) stormed into various arena's around the country playing a wild myriad of music.
The simple twist of fate in the tale, is that halfway through the tour, Sara Dylan actually joined up with the Rolling Thunder Revue. This prompted Dylan to write a lament called "Sara" in which he renews his love for her. Unfortunately, this didn't quite pan out, leading to perhaps the angriest renditions ever of Idiot Wind.
