What was the reasoning behind your last comment?
 

You're an unintelligent, elitist ass with nothing productive to bring to the discussion. How would you expect somebody who isn't very well-versed to get more acquainted with an artist like Dylan beyond joining in a forum with people who appreciate his work? Beyond that, nine out of ten people on MB have a swelling wealth of knowledge about music that probably dwarfs your own. Do us all a favor you imbred heap of ****, keep your comments to yourself next time.

Well Id say your screen name is well earned! and I will have to read up more on Christopher Ricks.

the title of the Ricks article sounds familiar ... not sure if I've actually read it or just seen it referenced ... I'll check it out, thanks!

I must say that Bob Dylan is the most overrated songwriter of all time. John Fogerty blows him away.

That's some claim.
It's also incredibly inaccurate.

not only is it inaccurate, it borders on blasphemy. lol.

Fogerty is great, and CCR is definitely one of my favorites, but Dylan's achievements as a songwriter are far superior, and far more inspired for that matter, than anything Fogerty has done to date.

that hurt my brain to read

:banghead:

Going to see him again on November 7th. I'm pretty pumped. :D

dragged I have to miss this tour ... too much $$, too many time conflicts ... three nights in L.A. and I can't get to ONE of them!! ... also I see that Ricks wrote a BOOK not an ARTICLE ... I'll take a look when I can, thanks!!
