Hey everyone, longtime lurker here (20 years?). Thought I'd share: A new Bob Dylan interview just came out, and he mentions this: "Performers and songwriters recommend things to me. Others I just wake up and they’re there. Some I’ve seen live. The Oasis Brothers, I like them both, Julian Casablancas, the Klaxons, Grace Potter. I’ve seen Metallica twice. I’ve made special efforts to see Jack White and Alex Turner. Zac Deputy, I’ve discovered him lately. He’s a one man show like Ed Sheeran, but he sits down when he plays. I’m a fan of Royal Blood, Celeste, Rag and Bone Man, Wu-Tang, Eminem, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen, anybody with a feeling for words and language, anybody whose vision parallels mine." Keep in mind, Bob's a trickster and he might just be messing with us here. Anyhow, nice little shout-out from the GOAT.

He also said he likes to watch Coronation Street.
Full of surprises, our Bob. GOAT indeed.

This guy still has surprises in him , he's going to turn 82 in May.
As much as I don't idolize celebrity, I'll be sad when he goes. There will never be another.
Noel's will be beside himself when he hears about it.
She Must Be One of Us is a straight up Dylan steal, and entirely cops that 'Highway 51' sound & 64-65's Mercurial Period.
This tune is perfect IMO.

Yeah, he could be just playing with us about Noel and Liam but if it's true and he does like them both, I wasn't expecting that as I really thought he would hate them.

For the love of god Bob, don’t let Noel hear you say that. It will only encourage him to officially release She Must Be One Of Us.

Nothing in this universe, not even absolute zero, is as cool as Bob was in 1966.
He's just been doing side-quests since then.

Quite an interesting list of names he reeled off there
Klaxons? Some Nu rave indie outfit from the mid 2000’s that fizzled our quickly. Possibly the last band I would’ve expected him to mention.
Not surprised to see him mention Alex Turner actually. I think Bob would definitely admire his lyrical style and ability.
I could see why he would like Oasis. If you read any biographies of Bob’s life, his first real interest in music was 50’s rock and roll. Then he got turned onto the Folk scene when he went to New York because that was the scene, but then once the British invasion started, he went electric. I know he liked a lot of the punk bands in the late seventies too. So despite people who kind of pigeonhole him as this folk artist from when he emerged as a musician, I think it’s pretty clear to see he’s a fan of good rock ‘n’ roll music.
