Bob Dylan

[Cruyff14]

Did a search but came up with nothing.

How there is not a thread about him is blasphemy.

Best lyricist ever. Like A Rolling Stone is ****ing amazing.

Times They Are A Changing, A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall. Just wow.

 

[Marlowe]

And because I'm partial to The Big Lebowski

 

[Smackrobiotic]

Love Dylan.

Just Like a Woman has to be one of the most beautifuly cruel songs ever written.

 

[JP Sauce]

Bob Dylan is the greatest.

/Thread.

 

[Cruyff14]

There will not be a greater lyricist.

Silence is never blasphemous.

I love the song "Scarlet Town" off his new album (although I've only listened to bits and pieces of it).

71 years of age and counting and still making kick-ass music.

"Hurricane" would have to be my all time favourite Dylan song though. Also love "Blowin' in the wind".

 

[Gough]

Found this little beauty. Would loved to have seen this tour. The live album doesn't do justice to both the awesomeness of Dylan and the Dead, although narcotics may also have also been a cause.

Received my Bootleg Series 14 box set yesterday, More Blood, More Tracks. It's the one all Dylan tragics have been waiting for. All plans I had for today can go and get ****ed; it's now an official Bobfest day.

His voice is nails on a chalk board to me x 100.
Different strokes, different folks and all that I guess.
Talented lyricist, awful voice.

Don't listen to another brilliant lyricist but questionable vocal genius, except for this one song..

Never got around to listening to him yet (well properly) but I've heard Waylon Jennings cover of "Don't think Twice" and I love the bit " I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul".

I haven't got that yet. Is it everything we've been hoping for?

Someone else on here messaged me with that track a few days ago. Seriously great song.

 

[DroopStDanny]

Yes. And then some.

 

[Hoos]

Yes. And then some.

That's good enough for me.

 

[Frank Bunn]

A good version by Kav Temperley, Xani Kolac, and the Rockwiz crew.

Not quite there for me, but thanks for sharing

Bob Dylan is the greatest.

He is not bad but Steve Earle is right:

“Townes Van Zandt is the best songwriter in the whole world, and I’ll stand on Bob Dylan’s coffee table in my cowboy boots and say that"

Bob may even agree with you (and Steve). I, however, respectfully do not.

 

[Gough]

Steve Earle is a modest man himself, not too many would have been able to write John Walker's Blues.
