I never found Bob Dylan to be all that great. I guess I just don’t get it.

It helps if your name is also Bob.

I’ve learned to hate the Russians
All through my whole life
If another war comes
It’s them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side

1962

Have you listened to Dylan’s first two or three albums? Here was a guy who was crying out from his gut.

I don’t know if you’re a Christian, but his songs back then actually helped me come to Jesus even though at the time he wasn’t a Christian.

However, I never really cared for “Like a Rolling Stone” - boring - which I found with most of Dylan’s songs they would play on pop radio.

But when I listened to some of his earliest albums, they blew me away.

I got Bob Dylan from Day One.

Probably the greatest songwriter in the history of the United States.

Hint: He is not a liberal.

Saw Dylan at a small venue in the late 70’s early 80’s during his religious phase. Came out and said if people took flash pictures or requested his old songs, he’d leave. Buzz kill but at least I can say I saw him in concert.

Hard to get someone who's trying to be anyone else other than himself.
