DYLAN turns 70: I'm Younger Than That Now

Post by jamestkirk »

Somehow, a chorus of “Happy Birthday” just doesn’t cut it for Bob Dylan, the Poet Laureate of his generation, today as he hits the milestone of 70. First and foremost, Bob didn’t write it.

Not surprisingly, the momentous occasion is being observed in many quarters. Rolling Stone magazine has devoted the cover of its latest issue to him, for a story listing the 70 greatest Bob Dylan songs as selected.....(for more see link to LA TIMES.....)

With apologies to Muhammad Ali, Dylan is simply "the Greatest". Happy birthday Mr. Zimmerman; keep on rockin'.
