I strongly disagree. Dylan is more than a distinctive voice. He's the quintessential poet and social commentator for multiple generations. He chronicles our feelings and foibles, our friends and our fears. Anna, he's more than just "an enormously influential figure in American culture."1010ParkPlacehttp://www.1010parkplace.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8199270158927284616.post-11626092520057165832016-10-17T08:58:34.551-04:002016-10-17T08:58:34.551-04:00I know, it really was out of left field!
