Looking back, I can't imagine what life would have been like without him. Him and the Beatles. All the others of course, but Dylan and the Beatles. What they gave. What awes me almost as much as his music is how successfully he pulled off being Bob Dylan. It wasn't an easy task. He did his music, but then he had to get up every day and BE Bob Dylan. I would have caved. So many others did.

@patrickobrien88514 жыл бұрын
Right... you had to get the "christian" plug in at the end, which suggests that your comment is an insincere one used as a carrot to draw in the unwitting reader whose reasons to read it have only to do with music and not with anything else. But since you bring up christianity, I will remark that artists are a volatile bunch, and Dylan at 43 was approaching the mid-point between a young-40 and a decidedly old-50, a time when the threat of aging is not simply a threat but instead a steadily encroaching reality, and the boogie-man that is the fear of mortality, it comes with the possum a-knockin' at his door. Clapton and Morrison likewise, though they are younger by a few years, and for these artists and for many many others, the anti-climax that is daily life in the wake of the artificial stimulation of performing, that anti-climax and the fear of its return drives them to excesses of many kinds, one of which is surely the rich delusion of the sanctuary of religion. Dylan's never-ending tour - or at least part of it and perhaps a large part - is his race from the beast that is the maws of death nipping at his heels. Because he is an American born in the judeo/christian culture of the 1940s there will always be an element of that in him, and the traces of those literatures are sprinkled throughout his songs because that is one of his social reference points. Just as his native tongue is American English, so are his cultural referents taken from the society that surrounds him, and he is no different to anyone else in this regard. Which is to say that being "christian" in what was once a predominantly christian society is not necessarily an act of understanding, agreement, or revelation, but more often an abdication to conformity, a return to the unthinking lullaby of everlasting calm and ironically, security. His christianity phase did not last very long; neither did it produce much work - arguably - of any great value or enjoyment. He went against his own natural grain during those years, and ended up being a tiresome evangelist of the kind he swore off many many times during his hey-day years of 1963 - 1966. Each person - artist or not - has to come to terms with the reality of death and the prospect of nothingness (which, by the way, extends for eons before each birth and does so again, after each death) and how each of us will face that prospect. Though the choice is simple, the implementation of that choice is not. Which is to say, we can decide to create meaning from the values of commonly shared human existence while on this earth, or we can forfeit that freedom to the delusion of ever-lasting life, a ludicrous idea the only purpose of which is coax cowardly people soothingly across the threshold of life that leads to death. Perhaps Dylan should finally get off the road and use that additional time to reflect further on what lies ahead for him. The covid-19 virus surely has given him an opportunity to see what that might actually be like for an extended period of time. He will not meet a maker, but he will certainly get to the end of the line, and reflection will be more of an ally to him then than any of the reducible cant we kindly label as belief.
