It's impossible to capture the flavor of that rap. It's always fun to listen to. The way he talks about the songs makes me think he does know them, but even at that I was taken aback by the praise he heaped on Bob Nolan of the Sons of the Pioneers. Who'd have guessed Dylan was that big a fan?
On an unrelated note, Dylan has a new album in August -- "Modern Times." Supposedly, it is very very good.
Definitely something to look forward to.
Can't beat the Ward Cleaver moment. That was a great episode.
I don't know why anyone would doubt that Bob Dylan doesn't know his music - the man has always been an encyclopedia.
He's commented on others who are encylopedias as well, like Tiny Tim.
