I must confess I find Dylan actually painful to listen to; maybe it's my Traddy Folk Implant (see below) which goes haywire when faced with singer-songwriters, or (God forbid) protest singers, but I do enjoy his Theme Time Radio Hour shows as much for the music as the sound of his voice which is like a cross between Zappa's Central Scrutiniser and Vic Reeves' Kinky John / Inspector Fowler. A high point of our cultural lives was when Vic used one of our paper tissues to stuff up his cheeks so he could do the Fowler Voice at his reading as part of the Durham Literature festival a few years back.
