A night to get drunk and celebrate the music of Bob Dylan
He was my bosom buddy friend to the end, one of the last true great spirits of my or any other generations
Jimi just wanted to record the song ... He loved Bob Dylan and he always carried his songbook with him. In this case, he was fascinated by the color of the lyrics and the tone of the lyrics, and of course the chord sequences were wonderful, too. It was a very special song.
Are you going to play 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand?'
We always had a record on at home - Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Leonard Cohen - or African music
The mystery of being in a recording studio did something to me and those were the songs that came out
Here’s a song I stole off Bob Dylan…Or he gave to me
There was a violent, angry emotion running through me then ... I just played played guitar and harmonica and sang those songs, and that was it. Mr. Hammond asked me if I wanted to sing any of them over again and I said no. I can't see myself singing the same song twice in a row. That's terrible.
You're the turquoise acoustic guitar strummed by a young Bob Dylan
I think a lot of that celebrity stuff is garbage. Just a lot of extreme marketing. Some are just fine, but then just not that interesting and too expensive for how they taste because it's just about the name
Bob Dylan was unknown to us ... I knew he was a folksinger and songwriter whose hero was Woody Guthrie. And that's it.
Celebrities serious about wine attach their name to a winery or vineyard because they enjoy wine and want to be part of wine culture
Shawn's writing great tunes ... Flaco and I are writing. Every time we go into the studio, we bring two or three songs and we record them all. ... I have a solo album coming out this summer, and I just finished an album with Tom Waits. I do a lot of sessions with Bob Dylan, Jeff Bridges.
I think that Bob Dylan is the greatest living songwriter of our time ... I really appreciate people like Dylan Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, stuff like that, because I feel like they used their music to connect themselves to a movement. I get really energized by that. And Dylan is still doing stuff l...
I grew up on the Travelling Wilburys and Roy Orbison ... I have always been a Bob Dylan fan and have sung his stuff in the past so to revisit that is perfect for me. We used to play Tom Petty in my band about 15 years ago. It's a collection of songwriters I am really familiar with and really respected t...
We found Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen and Gram Parsons and all their influences as well, like the Louvin Brothers. We were totally in love with this music.
When I hear Bob Dylan's music, I love it because of the stories
We have Bob Dylan’s house in Manhattan. What better place to throw a small music event than his old garden? It’s also a great way for people to monetize an undervalued asset — their home. Anyone can place their house into the rental pool.
Folk music was written from the heart, and its antecedents were written from the heart, not for the money. That is the reason it has that kind of power ... When people are writing songs for the money, they are far less likely to write the kind of poetic lyrics that Bob Dylan wrote or Pete Seeger wrote.
I mean, the fact that there has been 50 years of Bob Dylan music -- I think -- is pretty incredible
The album 'Bob Dylan' is the representative sound of a supremely talented young man at the beginning of his life trying like hell to sound like he’s near the end.
This is the most succinct album Bob Dylan has ever created, straddling the line between the past and the future as he forcibly pulls the rest of the world in to the realm of his abstract thought by sheer force of will and finely crafted melody?
Story focuses on the folk music scene in Greenwich Village in the 1960s and the title character is loosely based on Dave Van Ronk, a folk singer who was friends with Bob Dylan, among other famous musicians.
I’m not predictable or boring. I like to change things all the time. I like discovering ... I want to connect the principles and ideals of the ’60s through music so that the music of Marvin Gaye, Bob Marley, John Lennon and Bob Dylan [can] be alive today.
