Subject: RE: Sandman and Discussion of Dylan Songs
‘I am still unable to see in him anything other than a youth of mediocre talent. Only a completely non-critical audience, nourished on the watery pap of pop music, could have fallen for such drivel.
quote Ewan MacColl
I think my assesment of Dylan and my criticisms are kinder and more positive, however I note i still get attacked by Dylan fans notably Jeri.
Jeri seemed to think it necesary for me to be a songwriter to offer a critique.
Most music critics who publish reviews need no such qualification., most of them are not professional musicians, singers, performers or songwriters
I would not dismiss Angelina as total drivel, i am just puzzled how a songwriter can mix cliches and peotic imagery to me the song is a curates egg
