I have a couple of CDs that came with @chelseadaveā€™s stuff - never played them, probably never will.

Floral Image - Gone Down Meadowland

(This is not aimed at you in particular Nick)

Arguably the most important artist of the 29th Century and people have never listened to him. :astonished:

I get that people donā€™t like Dylan, I get that people donā€™t like his voice but for any one vaguely serious about music to have never even listened to a Dylan record is astonishing

You can argue!

Nobel prize for literature ,10 Grammy awards. Golden Globe, Pullitzer prize, all of the ā€˜Halls of Fameā€™ stuff
One of the biggest record sellers of all time.

Over 600 artists have recorded covers of his songs making approx 1500 recordings of over 300 unique songs.

Few artists have written 300 songs let only had them covered!

Well spotted! :grinning:

Impressive but basically none of that matters to me. I just donā€™t like his voice. No doubting his songwriting talents though. All Along the Watchtower must be one of my favourite Hendrix tracks.

I liked his radio show but I pick and choose his songs (plenty of choice). Donā€™t think I could listen to a whole album.

I say the same about Iggy Pop these days.

Nobody ever asks Bob to sing karaoke though.

All this talk of being ā€œserious about musicā€ is a bit wanky really.

You either like something or you donā€™t.

Agreed, but that wasnā€™t my point

I donā€™t understand your astonishment. Maybe I am not serious enough about music.

Same boat. Bought one album from CDā€™s charity sale to try it.
Iā€™m not in any way upset I have never been there. Heā€™s better when his songs are covered, for me.

Have heard him many times on the radio,but Iā€™ve not had any urge to listen further
