I am not sure I can even say why, but Dylan does nothing for me. Lyrics that seem willfully obscure, the harmonica huffing and puffing, and that whiny voice. Chuck a load of folk in there, and actually, I can see why he's not for me.
It's all about the songwriting. Bob delivers, with a little bit more as well. That voice is aquired listening. Somehow he stretches into showing signs of a soulful delivery. He changes direction completely on Idiot Wind. Bimey. Bob doesn't half belt this one out. It's like a drunken bar roomdelivery. It's a bloody great break up album.
