Hey Barry,
Will you be playing 'Desire' by any chance?

Heck, Chris - don't tell me it's a "must have" title of Dylan's; I passed up on a second hand CD copy found in a hippy junk shop in Conwy last week.

Bought a Van Morrison disc instead. :rolleyes:

My fault - I moved my post from there when I realised it should have been here - sorry!



Anyway, as I was saying (over there):
It's actually my favourite of his albums, but I thought it might be useful for you to give it a listen purely for 'investigative purposes'.

I just had a phone call from a mate and 'The Times They Are A-Changin' was playing at the time..... I had to laugh, when after a few seconds on the phone he said "What's the noise in the background?" and the tone in his voice wasn't complimentary :lol:

Even at 70 he still divides opinion :scratch:

I'd agree with your mate Tim - thank god I missed the day! :lol:

I'm afraid a Dylan concert I went to around 1986 with my then girlfriend remains singularly the worst concert experience I've ever had. To say that he couldn't sing would be a gross understatement. I was very relieved to get out of there but had to hold my opinion to myself as she loved it :scratch:

He's a good songwriter but that voice...:spew: Sorry but I have tried. Several times...:(
