Dylan knows the music, he can talk all that old stuff a lot he has covered, really can't think of a rocker more aware of where it all came from than Bob Dylan.
I like his vocals, he is in there with Joe Cocker, Leon Russell, Dr. John, Bukka White, Blind Willie Johnson, not to be confused with Elton John, Steve Perry, Neil Diamond, Harry Chapin. I prefer rusty nails and grim. Give me back allies and one pool table bar rooms.
One of those old timers that he has talked about and covered a few times is one of musicdom's true ....???.....he was know as The King of The Mississippi Delta Blues and he was his influense on what came late was immense. He frst started recording the records in 1929 and has enought material for a cool three CD set. Check out these vocals....(singing about that 1927 Mississippi flood)
Kinda like beer, takes a while to finally get it.
