Just to be clear, I don't 'hate' Bob Dylan, but he isn't my favorite singer or songwriter - not by a long shot. However I don't have an issue with those who do feel a deep afinity with Dylan and his music. Little Hawk said it very well - everybody's buttons are different. Joan Baez pushes the right buttons for me most of the time (but NOT when she sings "The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down".)
