Thread Name: Is/Was Dylan happy? Was it worth it?
Subject: RE: Is/Was Dylan happy? Was it worth it?
Was the Bob Dylan in Don't Look Back the real Bob Dylan? If so, the main adjectives that come to mind are smug, superior, snide, bullying, condescending, and cranky. Now, I'd like to think that Bob's immaturity and dislike of the Press were the cause, but it seems that at that time, all of us were smitten by Bob's genius, but most particularly smitten was Bob.

He has written some amazing songs but I would stand on Bob's coffee table and say this : Townes Van Zandt was a nicer guy.
