Sebastian Cabot, actor
 
A Dramatic Reading With Music,
Bob Dylan, Poet...
 
Beloved London-born character actor Sebastian Cabot made a career out of playing the terribly proper British gentleman. With a well-groomed tidybeard, a distinct upper crust accent, and a weight of more than 250 pounds, he projected an image of kindness and refinement and managed to appear both cuddly and stuffy at the same time. The star of The Time Machine, Johnny Tremain, Ivanhoe, and Kismet. he is best perhaps remembered by all those from 5 to 50 as the omniscient 'Narrator' in Walt Disney's series of 'Winnie The Pooh' movies, and as Bagheera in The Jungle Book.

The title says it all really: Sebastian Cabot tackles the Bob Dylan songbook on this startling relic from the anything-goes psychedelic era; with his half-spoken, half-sung baritone vocals and erudite British manner, Cabot certainly puts an utterly unique spin on favorites like "It Ain't Me, Babe," "All I Really Want to Do" and "Like a Rolling Stone", an excellent look at the high vs low culture debates of the 1960s that wanted to in effect "promote" Dylan and others from vulgar "songwriters" to "poets". The fact that enroute, Cabot outdoes both William Shatner AND Leonard Nimoy in the 'Golden Throats' stakes is surely a bonus! A total classic, to be sure!
