It’s actually a little deeper than that. Dominic Behan despised Bob Dylan because Bob Dylan ripped off his patriots song to make cap with God on Our Side. So when Dylan asked if there were any poets, like Allen Ginsberg, and they replied Dominic Behan, it was like a backhanded slap. One of the subtleties that you might not catch unless you think about the relationships at the time.

My parents gave me their extra copy of "Sunshine Superman" when I was 7 or 8. It changed my life. I love Donovan, he's really not anybody else, he's got a very unique thing. I love Dylan too, but hey, he's a folksinger, a bluesman, and music is like poetry. You borrow, you steal, you grab whatever fleeting thoughts escape from your own unconscious mind as fast as you can capture them and nail them to the floor of that piece of paper. That's what being an artist means, it's not about judging others (it happens, but it's not important) it's about trying with every molecule of yourself to tune in to the Universal Poem and express it as it comes to you.

In a conversation with a fellow american recently, he mentioned that Donovan is not very well known in the states. Obviously he is not as well known as some, but it seemed a little strange to me that americans were not familiar with Donovan. Ultimately he is right though, and that reminded me just how far one can stray from mainstream thinking.

Why is everyone saying this is some psychological battle between Dylan and Donovan? Donovan played one of his new songs, not his best song to compete with Dylan. And Dylan played baby blue because Donovan requested it, not because he knew it was a brilliant song, so it would beat Donovan's song. Donovan, at this time, was a poor man's dylan; he knew this and accepted it. Dylan was his idol, and he certainly wasn't arrogant enough to try and compete with him. They're just a couple of musicians, playing to each other. Not rivals.
@paulphillips911410 жыл бұрын
You underestimate Donovan's ego when you say that he accepted the role of 'poor man's Dylan'. He certainly did not. Very early on he cited the fact that he was developing his guitar style and songwriting on the road long before Dylan appeared. He said this to reject the very cloak you suggest he wore. Mr Leitch is very sure of his place in pop music history - taking credit for inspiring some of the Beatles' best output on The White Album. He would never acknowledge second place.

Donovan wasn't a useless copy. He is also a singular talent. His music was very different in many ways. For one thing, he was from Glasgow and Dyland was from Hibbing and New York. Donovan did gain some early success though because the press painted him as "the English Dylan" even though he was from Scotland. I saw them both in person at Newport, same festival almost 50 years ago. With my eyes. Didn't see any hate. There was some competition. Far from hate. Don't malign these men please.

Donovan and Dylan influenced and had major input on the best band of all time- the Beatles. If it wasn't for these 2 amazing artists we would not have the Beatles as we know them today and basically everything from Revolver on.

Sorry, Beatles were not influenced by them. I like both of them, but Beatles were influenced by a whole other genre (s).

77ADK You are wrong. They were clearly influenced by Dylan. Lennon was so overwhelmed by Subterranean Homesick Blues that he said he didn't think he'd ever write anything that could compete with it. And Dylan got them onto weed, which obviously had a big influence on them: www.beatlesbible.com/1964/08/28/bob-dylan-turns-the-beatles-on-to-cannabis/

Best band, maybe some people agree, but not in the same league as Dylan himself as songwriters.
@jmill2828er10 жыл бұрын
77ADK sorry 77ADK- but you might want to brush up on your music history. It's very well documented that Dylan had many conversations with Lennon about his song writing and drugs. Lennon has even said that Dylan influenced him and the beatles about saying something within their songs. Not to mention Donovan's influence on George when Donovan and the beatles went to India to study with the maharishi. The beatles are the best band ever but they definitely embraced and were influenced by their surroundings of this amazing rock time period.

Tyrone Slothrop Pah! Anyone who puts forward the idea that Dylan is in a superior league compared to Lennon/McCartney is clueless about music.
