When I began to listen to The Beatles in my younger days,
almost at the same time I started to
listen to Bob Dylan. Basically I like The Beatles best of all,
however, I like Bob Dylan as I like The Beatles.
We could listen to many popular songs on the radio then.
There were many popular songs around us through the day.
The songs by Bob Dylan were impressive and exciting,
so I liked to listen to his songs so many times.
I like Bob Dylan too much, so I went to see his concert three times in Japan.
But I could not satisfied with his concert at all in Japan
because all of my favorite songs had been changed by his technical arrange.
The songs were far from original songs that I could listen to on the radio or records.
It was so curious and rather funny for me because I could not understand the song's title
while listening to his songs in his stage.
After I noticed his style in concert, I would not like to go to his concert.
This may be my biased opinion for Bob Dylan. I don't know.
But I like his original songs after being issued.
Among many songs, I like " Like a rolling stone" best of all.
This song seem to have strong message in itself.
From the beginning to the end , the content of this song is a story about a woman who was rich and famous in her era.
She was rich and famous, but , in the end , she had lost all her possession including her famous status.
Dylan writes and sings her depression of her life in this song.
ビートルズを聞き出した時期とほぼ同じくらいにボブディランは聞き始めています。
本当に気の遠くなるような昔です。インパクトのある曲が多く、
昔はよくラジオで聞いていました。
でも帰路つらつら考えると、自分が間違ってると反省しました。
昔のディランを求めて期待していたのは間違いで、時間が経過しており、ディランも歳を重ねているのです。
ステージに立つことだけでも尊敬すべきと思いました。
いずれにしても昔のレコード、CDがあるから大丈夫！
