Bob Dylan is 70! Favourite Dylan songs!

Robert Zimmerman, a.k.a. Bob Dylan was born this day in 1941.

Musical legend Bob Dylan is 70 years old today! Happy Birthday Bob! Dylan’s music and incendiary lyrics changed the world of music; he broke down the walls of folk, rock and poetry and introduced the electric guitar to a genre that had previously shunned it. Let’s celebrate his music, influence and legacy. My favourite Dylan album is ‘Blood on the tracks’ heartbreak laid bare over some of his best works. Here are some of my favourite Dylan songs, I’m sure you can name many more!?
