I already posted this over on Ocean Drive, but just in case anyone is reading my ramblings over here and not there (this isn’t a zero-sum game, anyway. You could read both):
Happy 70th to Bob Dylan. I wanted to post “Forever Young” but I couldn’t find footage of it on YouTube. You can, however, check out a seriously awesome performance of it fromThe Last Waltz here. I would also suggest you check out this fascinating op-ed in today’s NYT that explores the connection to Bob Dylan’s age group and the advent of rock an roll. Ch-ch-check it out here.
P.S. Isn’t it completely ridiculous how young he looks in the footage from the Newport Folk Festival? Enough to make a 23 year old feel old…
