Jesus that version of Isis is astounding.

I stumbled across quite a few children’s book written by Bob Dylan in the educational book stores here.
To hear the store clerk read the book aloud is a gut wrenching experience.
We need to form a national Bob Dylan story hour to teach the readers how to read the stories in that unique Bob Dylan drawl (and play some music in between stories.

But but but…Rolling Stone says it’s “absolutely mind-blowing.” :astonished:

Seems like a spoken word history lesson. Hard to call it music. Musical background yes.

Rolling Stone, Rolling Stone, they yes are mind-blowing but have so many different perspectives who knows which way they’re going to go.

Rolling Stone magazine now is like an LL Bean catalog, with an article or two.

I like it.

I need to be high to listen to this one. But that’s not something I’ve done since I was in my twenties.

If I were high when I listened to it, I’m fairly certain I’d fall asleep before the midway point. It’s a strange song as it works best as background music, but the lyrics need to be heard and digested to really get into the song. They juxtaposition of the bland/relaxing music/delivery and the more intense and thoughtful lyrics makes this a difficult listen. But I still enjoy it.

Try this other artist instead, that keeps bumping me to Bob Dylan every time I listen to it.

Yes, indeed!
I was following the news and that’s how I came to know about his new album :wink:

Yeah he was very rich before that. He has secured his legacy. He will get airtime in the future.
