Bob Dylan

I used to not like Bob Dylan because it used to be that I've only heard his newer music, when he was already old, and it just didn't appeal to me. But now, I think Bob Dylan is a good and bad at the same time. The goods are that he is an amazing song writer, with some of the best messages in his lyrics that I've ever seen, and in some of his songs you can hear that he's a great musician as well by the way he plays his guitar and banjo. But the bads are that he doesn't have the best voice, a lot of his songs are not in my taste in music (folky blues kind of stuff), and his harmonica is the most loud and obnoxious thing in the face of humanity. But his voice wasn't really a turn off to me, he still sounded good until he started playing his harmonica, which is definitely the biggest turn off to me. I think Bob Dyaln is a great musician with incredible amounts of musical talent, his voice is tolerable but not the best, but there are some songs that he writes that sound like a dying cat. And not to mention his Christmas album where I think he just played a joke on everyone. I'm pretty sure he made it sound like crap on purpose just to see who would buy it just because he's Bob freaking Dylan.
