Steve Howe - I Don't Believe You (She Acts Like We Never
Have Met)
"I Don't Believe You (She
Acts Like We Never Have Met)" is a 1964 song by Bob Dylan from his fourth studio album, Another Side of Bob Dylan.
Dylan biographer Robert Shelton
describes it as being about "the intoxication of a night of love followed
by the throbbing headache of his partner's emotional abandonment
and detachment."
Dylan, introducing it at his Halloween, 1964
performance (released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 6: Bob Dylan Live 1964, Concert at
Philharmonic Hall) said, "This is about all the people that
say they've never
seen you..."

seen you..."
RS: You released an
album of Bob Dylan cover versions that featured singers such as Jon Anderson
and P.P. Arnold. Have you ever met Dylan?
SH: I had the
opportunity to meet him on one or two occasions because I went to three of his
concerts at Wembley. I almost met him there. Then I recorded the Portraits of
Bob Dylan album and I got in touch with his manager to seek permission to do a
whole album of his music—which was a good idea because if you do that with an
artist, you’re supposed to show that respect. So they gave me, “Well, Well,
Well,” which was a co-written song with Bob and P.P. Arnold. I did the album
and, I suppose I can say in print, the kind of albums I make have a production
perspective and they are about a certain level of manipulation and oiling and
fixing. It is a record. It isn’t a live performance that I did in the studio,
which is what mostly Bob likes. I’ve read the book about his recording.
That’s how he made his records. They were all about doing everything at once.
That may put him off this record considerably because my work is not about
that, it’s about a production that encourages your ear to enjoy the movements
and arrangements that I brought to Bob’s songs. The tunes I picked were
particularly significant to me and had nothing to do with what were hits.
RS: Your version of
“Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands” with Jon Anderson is incredible. One of the
best Dylan cover versions ever.
SH: Has anyone else
covered that song?
RS: Not that I can think of.
SH: Isn’t it great
that Jon really took on the song? He didn’t sing it like Bob. Jon brought
something very sweet to that song.
