I've enjoyed reading the rash of articles appearing on various aspects of the Greatest Living American as he celebrates his eightieth birthday. The best so far has been the one in which various luminaries choose their favourite Dylan song simply because it serves as a reminder of the Bobster's astonishing output - and even has almost uniformly appreciative comments BTL for once. (I guess the nay-sayers couldn't be bothered to explain why everyone naming their favourites were entirely self-deceiving.)
The fact that it would make perfect sense to name at least three songs from the recent sensational Rowdy Ways is evidence, if needed, that some geniuses somehow don't lose it. And a lesson to all oldsters to keep going regardless.
