GUEST, Bryant BS: Dylan is vastly overrated (97* d) RE: BS: Dylan is vastly overrated 03 Mar 00


Dylan's guitar playing is, generally speaking, nothing to write home about and his voice sure ain't pretty but in my humble opinion, he's probably the best songwriter/lyricist . . . well, ever. I can't think of too many who even compare.

If I want to listen to fantastic guitar playing I'll play a Doc Watson or John Hurt CD. If I want a pretty voice there are lots to chose from. But when it come to words . . . In a soldier's stance I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach.
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy
In the instant that I preach.
My pathway led by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow.
Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.

I love it.

Bryant
