Maggie's Farm

Bob Dylan standing loud and proud in front of Pete Seger and the rest of the folksie communist at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival and telling them in song, how utterly pathetic and meaningless they all were will forever be my favorite Dylan song/moment.

First time I heard “Sultans of Swing” on the radio I thought it was Dylan.

Lay Lady Lay

[Jane Long]

Subterranean Homesick Blues

The pump don't work
’Cause the vandals took the handles

I never caught on to any of his songs, I much preferred Joni Mitchell from that era.

Ain’t Bobby so cool?

[Alberta's Child]

“Positively 4th Street”

[Carriage Hill]

Desolation Row.
Lay Lady Lay.

Joni doesn’t care for Dylan, basically called him a “plagiarist”.

I suspect handle stealing vandal’s name is Ol’ Charlie and that he is also the reason the train won’t slow down, but I may be confused about that.

High Water
Not Dark Yet
Standing in the Doorway
Every Grain of Sand
Pressing On
Tangled Up in Blue
Tonight I’ll Be Staying Here With You
Visions of Johanna
Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again

He took old folk melodies and put modern lyrics to them... a lot of people did, including Pete Seegar. . She also mistook his Minnesota accent for a fake Okie one.

I love Joni’s work btw..

[GOP_Party_Animal]

Well, you beat me. I was just about to point that out.

[RitchieAprile]

Like a rolling stone.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Hurricane and Maggie’s Farm.
