That’s a lot of pressure Bearman….will have to think about it….
Like you say you hate his voice but have you heard Nashville Skyline?
Are you a romantic person? I cannot imagine one not appreciating Blood on the tracks!
Does folk appeal to you at all? Freewheeling Bob Dylan
How about one of Hendrix’s favorites John Wesley Harding. Amazing biblical music.
If you like punk seek out the YouTube of Bob backed by the Plugz on Letterman
I could go on all day
I'm a homo, so bear in mind that biblical music probably won't resonate with me. Use some of these as my reference points for what speaks to me: Paul Westerberg, Elliott Smith, Kristin Hersh, Neil Young (After the Gold Rush and Zuma are my go-tos), Tom Rush, Flying Burrito Brothers/Gram Parsons, Lee Hazlewood.
Freewheeling is probably more up my alley. But if you've got other thoughts based on where I was going, I'm going to try again.
One thing I've learned about myself is that even bands I used to hate, I can develop an appreciation for later on. The one Dylan song I actually enjoy is "Like a Rolling Stone". No doubt, that is a great song. Ironically...many artists I love find Dylan hugely influential. So my dislike of what I've heard from him confounds even me because I always thought I'd find something that would speak to me. Haven't yet though, at least nothing as a complete work/artistic statement.
