I always liked "Big Pink".

I was at Newport the first time he came on stage with an
electric guitar, the audience couldn't believe it, he got
a pretty hostile reception but like a trooper he just kept on.

His early work was certainly edgeier, critical and cryptic.

It's all right Ma, I'm only whining!

About 1993 not knowing the 94 election revolution was coming, I was in a distraught state about our nation, and one night while house sitting at a friends house, I listened to those old Dylan albums, curious if I would find solace in them or if my modern ears would hear liberal nonsense.

Well , Dylan sounded as revolutionary to me as he had in the sixties, his music wasn't about liberalism, it was about freedom and independent thought, and as a now mature man, I marveled at his intelligence and wisdom for such a young guy.
