}} "Gates of Eden" is a song by Bob Dylan that appears on his fifth studio album ''Bringing It All Back Home'', released on March 22, 1965 by Columbia Records. It was also released as a single as the B-side of "Like a Rolling Stone". Dylan plays the song solo, accompanying himself on acoustic guitar and harmonica. It is one of his more surreal songs. In a 2005 Mojo magazine poll of its writers and various well-known musicians, "Gates of Eden" was ranked 69th among Dylan's 100 greatest songs. ==Writing and recording== According to Dylan biographer Clinton Heylin, "Gates of Eden" was written in late June or July 1964.〔 Based on the clean draft of the song, Heylin believes that Dylan did not need to struggle as much writing this song as he did with "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Chimes of Freedom", which were written a short time earlier. In the draft, eight of the song's nine verses are complete and only two lines were revised for the final version.〔 The final verse in the draft is incomplete, consisting of just two lines:〔 :''At dawn my lover comes t' me :''an' tells me of her dreams The song was recorded in a single take on January 15, 1965, the same day as the other songs of side 2 of ''Bringing It All back Home''—"Mr. Tambourine Man", "It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" and "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue"—were recorded.〔 Tom Wilson was the producer.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gates of Eden (song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
