For another funny incident of Dylan, this time with Jose Feliciano, see details in my 2nd reply to the commenter below. Thanks for listening and watching!

I love John Dylan!

[@orphanedsounds9824]

I would reply with a humorous story but YT keeps sabotaging me. I'll try later.

For a funny story of Jose Feliciano doing an impression of Dylan without being aware he was in the audience-see Greenwich Village: Music that defined a generation. It's here on YT for free. When you see Jose doing his Dylan impression, that's the thing I believe he did on stage blindly unaware of his audience. LOL thanks for listening!

Yeah, John's always been my favorite. Dylan isn't his real last name though.

@@jaw444 LOL Good point. Wonder what would've happened if the manager had called him bobby zimmerman.... :)

I just saw the documentary about the making of “We Are the World.” At one point, some of the artists were serenading Harry Belafonte (I think it was his birthday) in an almost mocking way. Dylan would not participate. He respected his fellow artists too much to do that.

yes, good point. Bob had a lot of respect for other artists especially ones whose civic involvement he appreciated. Thanks for listening and commenting!
