Dylan had some incredible songs when he was younger but maybe the dope addled him in later years. Loved the Folkies(Seeger, Baez, Seekers).Early sixties had a lot of folk music and some morphed into anti war music.He didn't have the best voice, but I associate Dylan with my entire childhood as I heard all of his music very young. Parents had every album.Dylan was under rated elsewhere-like the southFolks in the state here just go ape shit over Prince. Guy was talented, but it is overkill especially since he died. People coming from around the world to see his studio.Being from MN, if I hear Prince anymore I just might lose my shit.
They play his songs like every 5 minutes here.
1999 is long past and so is the party.
Did he actually have ANY really good songs? I can't think of any. He was described here as a Michael Jackson wannabe. Probably not far from the truth. Now THERE was a talent.

Minnesotan's go gaga over their celebrities from the state.
Bob Dylan is revered here as a god although he moved away when he was young and pretty much showed no interest in his home state.
To me.
You can't drive through a northern forest road without listening to Dylan. He is the soundtrack of the Mesabi Range of northern MN.
