Thread Name: Why did Dylan dis Phil Ochs?
Subject: RE: Why did Dylan dis Phil Ochs?
I guess I am late here, but I agree with BK about Dylan. I'll go a bit father too, and say that a lot of his songs were very sloppy, with too many words the lines, and bad rhymes. His older stuff was very gimmicky,and those sarcastic one liners. with the surrealistic images, wear really thin after a while. His newer stuff just plods, on and on and on.

A couple years back,for a birthday party for a dear friend who was a Dylan fan, we played a couple of hours worth of stuff. There were some great moments, but it got very thin at times.
