| 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. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

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. |

| 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. |

What if we put Bob in the bowl?

| Highway 61 Revisited. |

| 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... ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” - Douglas Adams |

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

^ Not a huge Dylan fan but when he's good, old big nose is brilliant and when he's not good - he's a war crime against silence. Time Out of Mind, Blood on the Tracks, Desire and Love and Theft are all excellent in my book. -------------

I love the way you can hear the heartbreak - his broken marriage and general nihilism spread out across his wordings. Blood on the tracks is a reaction and a somewhat sonic healing process, but it still remains very fragile and sorrowful. I still love Highway 61 to death.. ------------- “The Guide says there is an art to flying or rather a knack.

A man who made albums like Time out of mind, Oh Mercy, Nashville Skyline and Blood on the Tracks just has to be preferred over peanut butter. Peanut butter never has and never will sound that delcious like those above mentioned albums! ------------- Don't Bore Us, Get To The Chorus |

No need to get defensive, I don't actually think so, I just don't like him being compared to soggy cereal.

How about Bob Dylan or a Bob Dylan shaped Reese's Peanut Butter Cup? "[Take it away, Bob. . .] I asked as nice as I could If my job would Somehow be finished by Friday Well, the whole damn weekend Came 'n' went, Frankie [Wanna buy some mandies, Bob?] 'N'they didn't do nothin' But they charged me double for Sunday You know, no matter what you do They gonna cheat 'n' rob you Then they'll send you a bill That'll get your senses reelin'" Frank Zappa ------------- Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Bob Dylan's scivvies are loaded with soggy peanut butter crunch....really!I have an old photographer friend, not too famous but well-regarded enough to have been invited to some high-profile entertainment events and even on a few tours, who swears that Dylan is basically propped up these days....same show nightly, handlers do all - he just shows up....and that he STINKS! Never washes and doesn't change clothes very often. He also says the same of Van Morrison.....he also says both of them are just plain ornery. Can't seem to blame them....celebrity must suck (but, of course, it pays the bills).
------------- I like to feel the suspense when you're certain you know I am there..... |

One of those artists I absolutely do not get for the life of me (insert Beatles too). It seems like he is begging for someone to shoot him and put him out of his misery....
I'll take the bowl....besides I love Capt Crunch cereal......at least he smiles. -------------

Even though I have heard his music only sporadically, I LOVE his lyrics, some of the best I have ever read in rock/pop. Unfortunately, I can't listen to a song just for the lyrics. I would probably like Dylan's work a lot more if he was a really good singer and could do more justice to his wonderful lyrics. |

Dylan, especially the man's 1965 - 1966 era. Tried Peanut Butter Crunch when I was a kid....didn't like it. ------------- He looks at this world and wants it all... so he strikes, like Thunderball! |

| I've always liked Dylan-not everything-but a lot. Plus, I'm allergic to peanut-butter, so voted Dylan. |
