Regarding a genius...

I find the general animosity towards Bob Dylan in today's generation very frustrating. In my mind Dylan is one of the most influential cultural figures of the Twentieth century, his music inspired a generation and he can be seen as much a radical poet as Keates or Shelley. Yet my housemates won't let me put his albums on because: "he can't sing" or "He's boring".

In my opinion 'Bringing it all back home' and 'Blood on the tracks' are two of the finest album i've ever heard. May his prophetic words be "blowin' on the wind" for a while longer yet.
