Thread Name: Why did Dylan dis Phil Ochs?
Subject: RE: Why did Dylan dis Phil Ochs?
Phil was also deeply troubled mentally. Some say schizophrenic others say bipolar other say alcohol induced psychosis. I don't know which but he was troubled enough to take his life.

Any one who could write a song like "I threw it All Away" doesn't need to re-imagine traditional songs and call them his own. No doubt Dylan could write. I just didn't like what he wrote all the time.
