It was like he was saying, "This young American upstart with the horrible voice is actually singing something quite interesting."

It was an exceptional father/son moment that I`ll never forget.
What one person said about Dylan's singing was not that it's good, but that it's very convincing and sounds truthful. Can't remember where I heard that, but I have to say that I agree with him or her.
