Honestly I'm not trying to sell anyone bullshit on this thread, just trying to understand my taste. It's only partly even about Dylan and more about what dell spoke about in his post. It has nothing to do with the authenticity of a folk singer or anything like that. I liked David Blue and 'Driftin Way of Life' immediately and have been making a genuine attempt to like Dylan for many years. It's odd to me because I can't even articulate what I dislike about Dylan.

I mean I used to many many reasons for disliking Dylan's music as I said above, but they don't hold weight for me any longer, now that I know more about music. But the dislike lingers. Really love that Wonder who cover!

and kenny buttrey, he's all over dylan's stuff! though if blonde on blonde wasn't doing it for you in terms of rad nashville session dudes, that might not make too much of a diff.

Maybe try the album "knocked down and loaded", the melodies are pretty decent and the production is this nasty 80s thing that verges on Big Music but is too frantic

admit it, you just don't like his voice. it's OK!
seriously, you've lauded nearly other aspect of his artistic genius, but sometimes there's just no accounting for how a voice makes you respond.

His voice is very different on New Morning/Nashville skyline though!
― moonbop, Thursday, 22 December 2011 02:01 (twelve years ago) link
I mean, different than the popular notion of what his voice sounds like
this is p dopehttp://youtu.be/gY3VrpyZnhs
but yeah if you're not feeling his default Dylan Voice it's prob not going to help you
