Bob Dylan

As I just said to the channel on IRC, I'm sitting here listening to some Bob Dylan and enjoying my new found appreciation for the man and his music. Then I asked, no one in particular, what it is about his music that almost always brings tears to my eyes?! If anyone can explain it, I'd be interested. I was listening to a song apparently called "Covenent Woman." Whoa. Really liked it. Its sort of funny to me that its taken me this long to 'really' be into Mr. D to this degree given how long I've been into the Grateful Dead, and Bluegrass. Actually, the realization that I liked Dylan much more that I would have otherwise thought came at the Phil & Friends / Dylan show the the Gorge in George, WA. I remember being very dissappointed in P&F, but that Dylan had gotten me to straight up crying during a few songs. It was then that I decided I needed to give the Bobster another listen. This is actually happening fairly slowly, but has accelerated in recent days as I've gotten some live stuff off the internet.
