Bob Dylan, have an opinion?

I was too young to see Dylan in the 60s. It wasnt until 1974 when he toured with the Band that I was able to see him at the Forum in LA. It wasnt the best place to see a concert but what a show. As we listened one last time an' we watched with with one last look spellbound and swallowed till the concert ended.

First there was Robert Johnson and then there is Bob Dylan. These two men, like Shakespeare, said everything worth saying about living life. I'm a big fan, revisted and otherwise. BTW, "Shakespeare's, he's in the alley..."

I went to the 1971 or 1972 Philadelphia Folk Festival. David Bromberg was playing and who should just pop in unexpectly but Bob Dylan. He sat in with Bromberg for a few cuts and proceeded with a 45 minute acoustic solo set. A very memorable experience especially since no one knew he would be there. A great musician and the poet laureate of a generation.
