The "PROPHET" turns 67 years old today (I'm sure he'd LOVE that description - lol), May 24th, 2008 and we are all so lucky to still have him performing and releasing excellent new music. No one writes like DYLAN, he's light years ahead of anyone else - just an amazing talent that is still working it in his late 60's. BRAVO BOB, let's hope there's a lot more Birthdays to come...... Leave a simple B-day greeting, tell us about your favorite Dylan song and how it effected/changed you, or leave your favorite "Bob" story.......

Happy B' Day Zimmerman!
Favorite....too hard to call.... but my first song that sent a chill down my spine was Girl From the North Country... I was stunned by the beauty and sublime simplicity of Dylan's playing and singing...beautiful!

I'm Your Teenage Prayer.......Always pulls the kid outta me

SO TRUE, once again Helter agrees BIG TIME with the ROCKMAN, a BRILLIANT version For sure.....

People see me all the time/I guess they just can't remember how to act/Their minds are filled with false ideas/images and distorted facts.....

IDIOT WIND 1976 - HARD RAIN (Ft. Collins, CO. outdoor daytime show and never released TV special)

Happy birthday Bob. Thank you for all of the amazing music you have given us. My favorite song is Desolation Row. It left me absolutely breathless after listening to it for the first time.

Happy birthday Zimmy!!!

Too many to mention really, but if I must pick one it must be Positively 4th Street

Sorry for my english ; I'm a french little boy (but I like it)

Could never choose a favorite. A song I play incessantly lately is "Watching the River Flow" from Dylan and his kicking band's show at Red Bluff in California
six or so years ago.

Happy Birthday Bob .

Still love Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands ,40 years since I first heard it , still sounds stunning today , not quite the same impact as back then , after all it took up all of side 4 of my first ever double album

Is that Clydie King behind Bob in the Sweetheart video?
I love Dylan biographer Clinton Heylin's description of Bob in this video
as "needing a new set of curlers."

Blessings upon his royal Bobness. So many great tunes but if I had to choose one I'm gonna say 'Sad Eyed lady Of The Lowlands'

Still rockin' and still coming up with gems like Modern Times. Long may you reign Guvnor. Fave song - Visions of Johanna. Sheer poetry that had The Beatles, Stones, Hendrix - all of them just gasping.

okay, happy berfday ol' Swede state dweller!

One of us must know (sooner or later).

Love that one. Probably my favorite.

Happy birthday!

This guy is GOD.My fav track forever young.

Arguably the biggest asshoIe in the music business. Great songs, keep it up Bob!
