Topic: Bob Dylan or a bowl of soggy Peanut Butter Crunch? Posted: August 06 2011 at 23:48 |
I know what you're all thinking, but it's not as clearly defined as some would have you believe. I've been ruminating over this one for ages. I can't decide. What do you fine fellows think?

Bob Crunch was a hack.
Peanut Dylan, now that's a real man's man.

Bob Dylan and peanut butter - crunchy to boot. What´s not to get? I´ll take Garden of Eden over leftovers in my teeth any day.

As far as loaded questions goes, suffice it to say that soggy has never been used in an ad campaign trumpeting a product's features.

I would pick a bowl of stuff that looks like peanut butter over a session of Bob Dylan listening every day...
He has good lyrics sometimes though.

Just so some of you folks know, Peanut Butter Crunch is a type of breakfast cereal.

Things must be really bad if PB Crunch fell victim to the dreaded Soggies.

Bob Dylan has made one album that I love and several that I like quite a bit, but a bowl of soggy Peanut Butter Crunch has made none that I don't particularly care for. Tough choice! Voted for Dylan.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

At least, Bob Dylan isn't dangerous for diabetic people.

My two favorites are Highway 61 Revisited and Time out of Mind (because it sounds like a good Tom Waits album)

I´m putting on Blood on the tracks. Undeniably, his best album ever...

I dunno. I loved Blood on the Tracks, especially You're a Big Girl Now, but Tangled Up In Blue doesn't have that all-encompassing ATTACK that was birthed from Like a Rolling Stone, and it doesn't have that humble death rattle that was spilled atop Time Out of Mind. I prefer it over Blonde on Blonde, though. :P
I faced some hard things this week. I, who'd once scoffed at the merest aspect of listening to a Bob Dylan album; who passed him off as an overrated pseudopoet, have come to the realization that he is my fifth favorite musician of all time. In order, here are my favorites:
1 - Highway 61 Revisited 2 - Time Out of Mind (thought Love and Theft's Mississippi is outright heartbreaking) 3 - John Wesley Harding 4 - Blood on the Tracks 5 - New Morning 6 - Desire 7 - Blonde on Blonde 8 - Bringing it All Back Home
