Bob Dylan

Currently in a big Bob Dylan phase.

He's an untouchably prolific song writer.

I think 'It's Alright Ma', more or less sums up everything.
Once a person writes something like 'It's Alright Ma', they've paid humanity for their existence in my book.

But then this guy goes and has another 500 songs and counting, at least 50 or 100 of which are on par with the best songs history's best folk songwriters have written.

Sometimes, it feels like contemporary folk music is half Bob Dylan, and half "the rest of folk music's greatest songwriters"
