Yes.... first learned about him as one of the greats of 'rock n roll' history in my world music class in uni.

Love this song..

Memorable Dylan classic.
Good choice.

Sometimes listen to the "Blonde On Blonde" or "Highway 61 Revisited" elpees just to rediscover how good Dylan was.
A lot of his concerts of recent times have been panned as shambolic by fans and critics, but his early recorded stuff is up there with the best of them.

Went to see him for the last time in 1998 at the SSEC in Glasgow where
Van Morrison was on the same bill and who gave a superb performance but the evening was spoilt by Dylan's tardiness when he kept us waiting for nearly 2 hours.
