Dylan made his voice do whatever served the song best, so there are all kinds of Dylan vocals, up front and forceful, soft and smooth, narrative, jaunty and tongue-in-cheek, name an emotion and there's a great song and performance to match.

@redbirdjazzz 8 ай бұрын

Yep. Every time I hear someone say that they don't like Dylan's voice, I ask myself, "Which one?". He's had, by a conservative count, at least twelve distinctly different singing voices over his 60+ year career.

Still the same story basically, and similar scenes, but cast in another town, and so on. Also kept the brilliant off-balance trick of using both 1st and 3rd person for the main male character.

His voice got better over the years. He was an self trained vocalist. When he first started he had a very nasal New York accent but he always made it work for him. He is songwriter, guitarist, vocalist and harmonica player all at once. His songs are anthems to an American age now passed but still here in so many ways. He has a huge number of songs that have been major hits for himself and others. So his voice isn't humanly perfect, neither is mine and I did vocals in bands as well. He signaled a weather change at the Newport Folk and Jazz Festival when he played his entire set with an electric guitar angering many of his fans unable to see the future rushing at them. The man has played with damn near everybody at one time or another and is an absolute legend, deservedly so, in music and will always command a major place in musical history.

@@stevendoran877 "When he first started he had a very nasal New York accent but he always made it work for him" Silly take. Dylan was from MN and was doing his best to steal from roots Americana artists like Leadbelly, Guthrie and deep Appalaichain artists he devoured, and pretended he was a hobo from flyover country, in order to look authentically roots to the yuppie New York City audiences who were into folk at the time. The last thing he was doing was trying to pick up a New York accent.

Thanks for your perceptive and informative commentary on Bob's voice, Maggie. I've been listening to him for 60 years, and I regard him as a brilliant vocalist. His exquisite phrasing, remarkable timing, and incredible capacity to explore and express emotional depths is unparalleled. And btw, to speak about Bob Dylan's "voice" is misleading in the extreme. On his recordings, he has revealed at least 20 different voices: he is the ultimate vocal chameleon. Tom Wilson, who produced some of Bob's best early work, felt that Dylan was a great blues singer, and that, "he could become a white Ray Charles." Listen to "She Belongs To Me" on "Subterranean Homesick Blues" (1965)--the last Dylan album Tom produced--and you will understand why he said that about Dylan's singing. As much as I love this version of "Tangled Up In Blue," it doesn't even begin to approach the brilliance and the power of the performance I saw him give at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens in 1998. His band was fantastic--and especially the drummer, David Kemper, on that song--and Bob built the momentum of the performance in such a remarkable fashion that it felt like he was going to blow the roof off the building. And then he played the best harmonica solo I've ever heard him play (and I've seen him in concert 17 times). I've been tangled up in blue for a long time, and I'm never quitting this gig.

Thank you, a trained classical singer, for recognizing Dylan's skill as a singer. Tangled Up in Blue means tangled up in a feeling of blue -- whatever that exactly means to the listener. To me, it's a melancholy and wistful flavor of feeling blue, as opposed to maybe the deep sadness of a traditional blues tune.

His voice has varied with time. After the motorcycle accident he took vocal lessons, stopped smoking tobacco, and turned down the backup volume. As a result it was less strained, and less dramatic from John Wesley Harding through the 70s. Age has caused a change in voice since then. Mind you I enjoyed his vocals even with smoking and a loud backup band.

Bob and Tom Petty were in a "supergroup" - the Traveling Wilburys dominated popular music in 1988-89. They shared a microphone and sang some duet sections in different songs. Other members of the group were Beatle George Harrison, Roy Orbison and ELO's Jeff Lynne. Unfortunately Roy Orbison passed away that prompted the others to leave the Wilburys behind.
