Bob Dylan was and is one of the most important and influential personalities of the counterculture. My friend ‘Bop’ referred to him as “The Father of our country”. Dylan was a bridge between the ‘Beats’ known popularly as ‘beatniks’ the ‘Folk Music scene’ and the hippies who evolved from these roots in the 60s. I was never a particularly strong fan of his singing voice or harmonica playing, but I admired the depths of his lyrical talents. Years later after I first learned of Dylan I attended a Dylan concert at Merryweather Post Pavilion in my home town of Columbia. Now maybe the sound engineer should get blame for it all but I’ve got to admit Dylan’s vocals were so muddled that he was half way through Blowin’ in the Wind before I even recognized the song!
