Bob Dylan's birthday
What we listen to.....
Good afternoon everybody. I have been thinking about Bob Dylan’s work through the years and wondered what song to listen to, and also what one to choose here. I played a lot of from the John Wesley Harding album which I love, Desolation Row, Ballad in Plain D but stopped at It’s Alright Ma (I’m only bleeding) from Bringing it all back Home.. It spoke to me, in its time, on many levels. It articulated the duality of having a conscious and wanting to be free.
So this is my choice. What song are you listening to? A title, a few words. And naturally, well wishes to Bob Dylan on his 83rd birthday.
Thank you everyone. No wrong answers that's for sure. I will keep checking in to see what your choices are. They are inspiring to revisit songs I haven't thought of for awhile.
The photograph below is myself taken in 1970/71. I had just cut my c
hair. It was one of Robert's first polaroids. On the roof of the Chelsea Hotel.
I was in a play and I had lightened my eyebrows.....
