It was Bob’s 70th birthday yesterday, so most people would have probably thought yesterday would have been a good time to ask around and make a playlist of their twitter pals’ favourite Dylan songs.
Not us though, we’ve decided to do it ONE DAY LATER like the mavericks we truly are. Which is probably what Bob would want if you think about it, isn’t it? No? Think a bit harder.
Sadly our plans for a shareable playlist have been thwarted by a mixture of record label vigilance and an impenatrable swamp of rubbish covers on YouTube, so here is a playlist made of WORDS and you may turn it into one made of sounds yourself, if you so desire.
