That's just the way liberals are (those in the audience).

I read an excerpt from his new autobiography. Dylan was never quite the hippie that his fans were. He wrote where he started purchasing firearms to protect him and his family when "fans" began to make pilgrimages to his home Many of these fans that showed up in his yard and on his doorstep were a little frightening.

You are correct. I actually read the autobiography in its entirety (looking forward to Part 2). Bob Dylan is right up there with Johnny Cash as my all-time favorite recording artist. Not only do the songs still sound great after all these years but other artists are still making great cover versions.

Actually my least favorite Dylan period was the period that brought him most of his fame. My favorite Dylan starts with the Nashville Skyline album.
