This is a rather funny thread. I have a few Dylan songs on our cars playlist and my wife hates them. Especially when that damn harmonica comes out.

His appeal really started in the coffee house days of the musical poet (beat generation/hippie) and was such a revelation to the other coffee house singers because he could write WAY better lyrics than they could.

His later stuff doesn't really appeal to me much but there are a lot of songs out that Dylan wrote and other people 'covered".

It's funny the generational thing to where someone's Prince experience, or Eagles, or U2 etc etc was life changing and I can't really stand them and wonder why anyone would listen to them.... and I have pretty eclectic tastes in music.

So much of music is tied into the times, and into when you hit puberty, as to why you love certain artists.
