Never-Ending Tour



Das "belief system" des Bob Dylan: Nach den ersten drei Teilen nun der 30-Seiten-Artikel über die 90er Jahre in Jewsweek.

"It would be, no doubt, a difficult task to divorce Dylan's essence as an artist from the biblical tradition. His composition 'Things Have Changed' was, according to Rolling Stone, 'one of those grim, intense Book of Deuteronomy howls he comes up with whenever he's in the mood to make all other rock & roll singers sound like scared kittens.'

That's the thing with Bob Dylan. How many rock and rollers are doing what he's doing Who else is raising support for an Orthodox Jewish organization, or singing about Jesus, or continually mining the depths of American roots music, or performing within the confines of a county fairground, or before the Pope, or in a casino in Atlantic City, or is the subject of academic theses?"
