I don't "deny Dylan's talent"- truthfully I don't care or know much about him - but I'd rather not listen to his music. Musically I it just does nothing for me and lyrically... well, if I wanted to hear/read some poetry, he'd be towards the bottom of my list.
I agree with RPM that the worst thing is the fans. I get fucked by the insistence that I have to like him and if I don't then I'm a philistine. Just like Jeff Buckley: everyone tells me that he's an absolute legend who wrote brilliant, life-changing music, but I'd rather listen to turds sploshing into a toilet bowl.
