How Bob Dylan s songs give me shelter from the storm

Eighty years ago this Monday, Robert Zimmerman was born to a middle-class family in a small industrial town in Minnesota in the US . He changed his name, made up stories about being a guitar-toting vagabond and forever altered the course of popular music. There are so many ways to pay homage to someone who is quite possibly the greatest artist ever, as I, like so many others, believe he is. Someone who has, in an unparalleled career spanning nearly 60 years, released 39 albums, inspired three generations of songwriters and won every conceivable award. I am going to take the personal route, not because my experiences are important but because I want to share the magic he has brought to my life.

Bob Dylan at 80: The master musician s 39 albums, ranked

10 min read From The Basement Tapes to Rough and Rowdy Ways, Bob Dylan superfan Ian O’Riordan ranks the singer’s studio albums He asked me to check out the used record stores and see had they any early Dylan on vinyl. This was his idea for a cheap Christmas present and sometime around that December of 1991, while in college in the US, I bought the self-titled debut album Bob Dylan as a gift for my younger brother. So it’s his fault, really, because that first influence started something still not easily explained: from there I borrowed, or else stole, whatever other Dylan albums he had at the time, some on cassette such as Highway 61 Revisited, others such as Desire on vinyl, and after lifting too his copy of Robert Shelton’s biography, No Direction Home, there’s been no looking back.

My favourite Dylan song – by Mick Jagger, Marianne Faithfull, Tom Jones, Judy Collins and more

Mick Jagger Desolation Row (1965) I was playing Bob Dylan records at my parents’ house when he was still an acoustic folk singer, but he was already very important and his lyrics were on point. The delivery isn’t just the words, it’s the accentuation and the moods and twists he puts on them. His greatness lies in the body of work. I was at a session for Blood on the Tracks [1975] and really enjoyed watching him record Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts, with this incredible depth of storyline, surrounded by all these boring people from the record company who he had sitting in the control room. I couldn’t record like that.
