Happy 71st Mr. Dylan

Bob turned 71 today.

Rolling Stone Magazine listed this song as the No. 1 song on the list of 500 greatest songs of all time.

Re: Happy 71st Mr. Dylan

I don't really care for Dylan's music. I know he has influenced so many artists and is held as a legend, but for me not so much.

But happy b-day to him. May he keep doin' what he's doin.

Keep Rockin!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Bob. Thanks for "To Make You Feel My Love" which has become my current signature tune smile.

Happy B-day Bob. Too many songs to pick a favorite. He inspired so many of us to be songwriters. Moss doesn't grow on a rolling stone.

Re: Happy 71st Mr. Dylan

My favorite of his is Tangled Up In Blue.  Among my least favorite is The Hurricane.  Both long story songs.  Go figure.

Just a couple of old friends strumming their way through a rehearsal. One with a Martin D28 (probably), the other with a Gibson J200. Happy Birthday, Zimmy! RIP George.

Without a doubt, "Highway 61"!

Close second, "Subterranean Homesick Blues"

Quite possibly the best song writer that ever lived. I can't pick a favorite song by him, impossible to do.

Gee, I wonder why? smile

Not a big Dylan fan, but I understand and appreciate what he's done for music.  The link happens to be my favorite Dylan tune.

Side note:  I heard an interview with Charlie Daniels on the radio this morning while I was on a long drive, and Charlie gave Dylan some big props.  Said he's one of the greatest American poets who has ever lived, cited him as an influence, etc. etc.

Re: Happy 71st Mr. Dylan

Everyone should give a listen to "Desire" I wore out several vinyl LP's and  still listen to it in the new digital age, it is his Best IMO , I don't Love everything Bob has done but he sure has given Acoustic players like myself some Great songs to Cover. He also got me started playing harmonica .........

Later, Wayne P
