To be honest, I didn't like Bob Dylan that much, didn't take the effort to pay attention to his lyrics, and wasn't sensitive to the politics of the era, and his voice, like it was glued from glue, chanted in a strange way Accompanied by a heavy nasal sound. As for his harmonica, it's too harsh (perhaps that suits him), far less than my beloved Neil Young. But when it comes to rock and roll, when it comes to modern folk, how can you miss him, it's like saying that the theater doesn't talk about Shakespeare, saying that the classical forgets Bach, likes the French New Wave but not watching Godard's exhaustion...
Bob Dylan The name came into my eyes seven or eight years ago, when a magazine talked about his Blowin In the Wind, and there are many words of praise in my impression. It can be said that before I heard his voice, Dylan was tall and mighty, radiant and kind, rebellious and rebellious in my mind. Until a few years later, when I had the opportunity to listen to most of his early albums, I still put him on a high case and confessed, although I knew that he was also a liar, pornographer, and drug addict when he was young. Pursuit is far inferior to his former partner Joan Baez, and the song is not as good as any folk singer of the period sang.
However, he is legendary.
No one has gone farther than Bob Dylan. He followed the spirit of American modern folk singer Woody Guthrie (the creator of the second American national anthem this land ls your land), and resolutely sang in the turbulent early 1960s. The voice of the times. After that, Dylan left politics, turned to look at the individual, and introspected deeply. At the Xingang Folk Festival in 1965, he appeared with an electric guitar on his back and officially plugged in the ballad, and from then on, there was no distinction between folk and folk. And Dylan's influence is not only in ballads, the whole rock of the 60s was listening to his voice and paying attention to his messages. If it weren't for Dylan's criticism of the beatles' "song content is empty", I guess we would not have heard anything like
