Hmmm. Interesting stuff, that. I have barely listened to "Love and Theft", so what can I say? What really has me upset is Dylan's casual lifting of the word "the" in any number of songs over the years. It's shocking that he has been allowed to get away with that without giving proper credit or compensation to his many sources and predecessors. However, I can forgive him for it, given the quality of much of his material. I will have to see if I can listen to "Love and Theft" again sometime in the next year or two.
