Bob Dylan

[Arthur 86]

Any fan of Robert Allen Zimmerman here? (Bob Dylan's real name)

Lana love him very much and I love him too :-)

Lana also said in an interview that his album "Blood on the Tracks" is her favorite, I think she's right!

[Lana Del Rey 752]

I've seen him live twice. My dad, and my grandmother and huge fans. I think my Grandmother has been to 30(?) of his shows and she still attends even though she is 68 years of age. 

Lana has seen him twice too, makes me feel more *~spiritually connected~* to her..

Knockin' on Heavens Door is one of my faves and I was overjoyed when Lana sung it (Even though it was only 50 seconds long) 

[Arthur 86]

You've seen him twice already!?

And you're only 14?!

You lucky english girl! ;-)

 

I've seen him live twice.

I started getting into him when LDR said something about making a point to know everything he put out (I think this was a recorded interview). I wasn't aware she'd actually singled out a favorite album. Any clues on where the interview can be found?

 

Dylan is an interesting singer to compare to LDR, in that a lot of people laugh at his singing technique (even his younger voice). It's an acquired taste, but I see why a lot of people love him. I like the way Dylan often has a different sound on each album (e.g., Time Out of Mind, Street Legal), possibly on the basis of what musicians he finds at the time, idk. I like that he's experimental and takes risks, even while he has a clear reverence for (and desire to keep producing in) a folk-singing heritage.

I will try to find again this interview, it was in a french magazine

Excellent choice for a Nobel Laureate also the first recently appointed NL I was familiar with prior to the award. Interesting the pop twittersphere isn't blowing up much with this; yesterday was a great day for pop music when you think about it.

[marryingkind 2,492]

Is he releasing something soon? 😍🙏

 

jk, but he’s amazing and a great inspiration to have

[Alison by Slowdive 26,150]

was pretty unfamiliar w the bulk of his discography (knew + liked positively 4th street, lay lady lay, tangled up in blue, it's all over now baby blue, etc. and stuff by the traveling wilburys, but not much else) but for the past few months i've been slowly making my way thru his music

 

so can't say a favourite yet but ones that stick out for me atm are:

 

stuck inside of mobile with the memphis blues again - a real contender!!

moonshiner ❤️

north country blues

dreamin of you (this sound for him, hot)

standing in the doorway (i can almost imagine an older jeff buckley singing this 💔)

love sick

leopard-skin pill-box hat

ain't talkin

tryin to get to heaven

subterranean homesick blues

went to see the gypsy

down the highway

this wheel's on fire

what was it you wanted

[one time beauty queen 18,445]

@Alison by Slowdive  I kind of had a similar experience .. only since getting w my bf (huge Dylan fan) in April fan ive gotten to know a lot more of his discography.

 

thats a great list though !

Positively 4th St. is just sick burn after burn lol, never gets old
