Bob Dylan's Unheard, 43-Year-Old Song 'Pretty Saro' Goes Online
. On August 27, "Pretty Saro" will be featured on Dylan's Another Self-Portrait. The box set will include 35 tracks cut for Nashville Skyline, Self Portrait and New Morning. The stripped down track features Dylan's familiar quivering vocals and light finger picked acoustic guitar. But that's not all. Filmmaker Jennifer Lebeau has created a video for the song. Using photos from the Farm Security Administration, which is stored at the Library of Congress, her video transports the viewer back in time. Having gone through 1,200 photos from the 1940s, '50s and '60s, she created a specific tale to fit Dylan's vocals. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Lebeau opened up about what she wanted to capture in the video. "His vocal delivery is so haunting. I wanted to be able to visually represent that sort of unrequited love in a world that seems like it should be sad, but the people are always happy and fine," she said. She added: "It literally goes from women on farms with wagons to Rosie the Riveter. They were doing laundry and tilling the land, and at the end, they're building planes and really in charge of everything at the work place. We wanted to include as many of these magnificent faces as we could, and tell this story across the years." Watch the video for "Pretty Saro" here.
