Name one of Bob Dylan's most-performed live songs, that is said to be inspired by the Prospect Park Water Tower in Minneapolis.
Prospect Park Water Tower The Prospect Park Water Tower, sometimes referred to as the "Witch's Hat Water Tower" or just "The Tower", is a historic water tower in the Prospect Park neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. It was built in 1913 on Tower Hill Park, a hilltop park established in 1906. The water tower has become the neighborhood's architectural mascot for its singular design by Frederick William Cappelen. The tower is rumored to be the inspiration for Bob Dylan's song "All Along the Watchtower," as the tower was clearly visible from Dylan's home in nearby Dinkytown.
Love Is Just a Four-Letter Word "Love is Just a Four-Letter Word" is a song written by Bob Dylan, and long associated with Joan Baez, who has recorded it numerous times, and performed it throughout her career. Baez immediately took to the song, which was written by Dylan sometime around 1965, and began performing it, even before it was finished. (In the film "Dont Look Back", a documentary of Dylan's 1965 tour of the UK, Baez is shown in one scene singing a fragment of the then apparently still unfinished song in a hotel room late at night. She then tells Dylan, "If you finish it, I'll sing it on a record.") Baez first included the song on "Any Day Now", her 1968 album of Dylan covers; she has since recorded it three additional times. Her 1968 recording was also released as a single.
