And you are into many modern day singer/songwriters mate who were probably are influenced by Dylan

Have to admit his music is an acquired taste which is probably the reason why so many on here are not that keen on Bob

Without a doubt, it's the delivery not the song, he's like the Beatles for me, prefer the songs done by others.

As you know as a kid I loved the Beatles & Stones, still do !

I do agree though there are many good covers of the Fab4 recordings....one that comes to mind is Emmylou Harris version of 'Here There & Everywhere', absolutely adore Emmy's rendition

[1964white]

A very nice vocal performance.

Indeed nice mate

I've heard First Aid Kit a few times on the radio

[1964white]

More effing & blinding songs

[1964white]

Album of the year so far for me.

Very interesting, love that track

Investigating further right now listening to the song 'Diamond'

[1964white]

'The Future and the Past' by Natalie Prass is probably my favourite album of the year, much more soulful/jazzy than her excellent 2015 singer/songwriter debut. Can't believe her unique voice for a white lass

I've never had any problem with the colourful language we have in this country when used appropriately. As it is here. The problem with it is when it is transposed for better fitting words by those with a tenuous grasp of the English language.

I love PiL, always have

I also love PIL & R&B music but when I hear constant industrial language in artists songs I'm somewhat put off tbh, maybe it's just me

Their fifth album and haven't made a bad one. Last twice they've toured I've been on holiday, would really like to catch them live.

I knew it had to be a golden-oldie to have a liking for Dylan's music

Three of those in my top ten, for some reason I haven't got 'Infidels' on my shelves

My first choice would be a strange one with many BD fans, it was my first Dylan purchase around 1970/71 so for sentimental reasons 'Another Side Of' is my favourite with 'Blonde On Blonde' on a par for the No.1 spot, anyway here is this funny little tune

[1964white]

and if anyone is looking for an updated Ozrics to just chill out to, from just down the road here in Frimley comes the wonderful Shpongle, loads of full albums on You Tube to stream

Never been shpongled before

Trippy stuff

Sounds great through my headphones

[1964white]

Who likes the blues? ...cracking cover this

Tis indeed a cracker

I believe you plugged these lassies a few months ago & I was quite impressed then

Further investigation required

[1964white]
