"So **** the Stevie Ray Vaughn’s and Eric Clapton’s with their boring ass blues wanking. This list isn’t for the old farts whose conception of good guitar playing is limited to the most banal modes of style. This list of the more adventurous at heart who don’t hear just plain technical musicianship, but aesthetically pleasing sounding styles and innovative work that influenced guitarist past their own records."

Utter bullsh**

I thought it was weird that none of the lyrics listed as examples were political......
Thats the biggest reason to respect Bob Dylan. He made music that forced people to think about the world around them.

5. You Listen to new U2 - well, we know at least one person on this forum would agree to that :P

I'm guessing the person who wrote this article equates lyrical quality to concentration of pretensious trite.

When I read that Dylan was doin’ a Christmas album I wrote parody lyrics to “The Times They Are A Changing” and they go something, well – exactly, like this and moi thinks that they are better (After the fact of the Xmas CD) that Dylans
Pretend you’re a sweet Christian
Pretend you’re a hurt Jew
Pretend you’re a Buddhist or Satanist, too
At end you ain’t nothin’ but DNA goo
Preorder get Zeromas savings
The more sell, the more you get
It’s jungle or zoo
For the times they ain’t a-changin’

The only thing I do agree with him is the reading Rolling Stone comment. I don't agree that just because you read it makes you ignorant to music, but I do agree that Rolling Stone does put out some irritating garbage. Especially their lists.

Ugh.

Other than that, this guy is a moron.
