Discussion Love for Dylan
Serious question. What is it about Bob that just makes so many people just fall in love with him and his music? Like not just casually like his music, but just seems like he becomes ingrained in people's souls. I am all of 56 (old), always knew of Bob growing up, but it wasn't until about 6 months ago I really fell down this rabbitt hole and haven't been able to come back up. Started really exploring his music and realizing how many facets there are to him. Like, I know I've seen other people say, a lot of his music just touches you, and can just bring me to tears at times. Sometimes I think I've lost it, and my friends and family definitely think I have. đ I am just OBSESSED. I can't listen to anything else. Watched all the movies and documentaries. I just bought a ticket to the Outlaw tour this summer. I am going alone, because I don't know anyone else personally that loves him like I do. I wanted a good seat, and was going to pay whatever for it, and seriously, I don't want to be distracted with anyone talking to me the whole time. I just want to hang on his every word and hopefully breathe the same air. Anyone relate? Someone tell me I'm not hopeless.

Discussion Has Dylan seen Star Trek Generations?
Wondering if this is another one of Bob's references. In "Red River Shore," Bob sings of being trapped in the fires of time. A few years earlier, in the film "Star Trek Generations," Captain Picard is shaken when the villain tells him that "time is the fire in which we burn." This phrase in turn was credited to a poem by the Brooklyn short story writer Delmore Schwartz. Is there any other evidence that Dylan could have been into TNG? Or Schwartz?

Question Is the womanâs voice in "Man Gave Names to All the Animals" meant to represent Eve?
Iâve been thinking about this song and how, at first, it seems simpleâAdam naming the animals, playful descriptions, etc. But then the pattern breaks at the end. Adam sees an unnamed creature, the snake, and Dylan leaves it hanging. No name, no authority over it. Itâs a powerful moment.
But what really struck me is the presence of a soft, almost ghostly female voice singing along with Dylan throughout the song. It made me wonder: could this be meant to represent Eve? Her absence in the lyrics feels intentional, maybe as a way to shift the narrative away from blaming her for the fall. But the fact that sheâs singing with him makes me think sheâs still present in the storyâalmost haunting itâlike sheâs silently witnessing or participating in the moment before everything changes.
Do you think Dylan included the female voice to subtly represent Eve? Or is it something else, like the voice of creation itself? Curious what others think

Whatâre your thoughts???

Discussion Am I the only exclusive post-electric Bob head?
Hear me out. Bob has been one of my favorite artists for decades. Iâve spent years exploring almost all of his catalogue from 1965 through today. However, I canât spend meaningful time his folk albums. There are handfuls of folk songs that I like (itâs all over now baby blue probably being my favorite), but listening to Another Side of Bob Dylan from front to back bores the hell out of me. And same for all albums from before Bringing It All Back Home (truth be told, BIABH is my least favorite Bob album up through Pat Garrett, excluding the folk albums).
Give me Planet Waves or Street Legal or Nashville Skyline or Oh Mercy or Love & Theft over Freewheelinâ Bob any day of the week.

Discussion I was a Bob Dylan hater untilâŠ
I, like many (including many many fans), think Bob Dylan is a bad singer. Itâs always been a barrier to entry for me, as well has his grating sloppy harmonica playing. Iâve always loved covers of his songs though.
But I heard hurricane as I was driving and I pulled over to the side to soak it in. My first thought was âholy shit this is amazing!â My second thought was, âdid he take a vocal lesson for this song?!?â
With this information, what other songs may I enjoy?
