I thought you were the person who brought up Dylan? At any rate, I think you may be missing my point. I'm just responding to the notion that retro music movements are somehow an invention of the time we're living in. I don't feel that this is the case. The example I've been using is the folk revival of the 60s which, even though the term "retro" wasn't in use at the time, was definitely a retro movement.
