My favourite bob song is the demo of I'll keep it with mine (a song he gave to nico) on that 3 disc compilation from the 90s? I forget the name of it. I'm a long time bob fan and happen to love most of his voices up until recently. I do think people assign import and meaning to lot of his blonde on blonde era lyrics that just isn't there though. Desolation row and visions of johanna always felt self Indulgant, meaningless and overly revered to me. My favourite dylan stuff is more low key, percy's song, song for woody Guthrie, I'll be your baby tonight, lay lady lay, don't think twice it's alright, love minus zero... Just breathtaking Genius. I love bob but will never defend him to non bob believers. I never saw the point. Happy birthday bob you funny, awkward, splendid old scrote! X
