I like some Dylan songs, I don't like others. He had a more lasting effect on popular music than Michael Jackson or Lou Reed ever will. I don't imagine my grand kids will be singing Thriller or Walk on the Wild Side at camp. But Blowin' In the Wind became immediately a folk standard .

he is far from my favorite of the age and genre but I'd be a fool not to accept and honor his place and influence in the field of music I love.
