I have both on my “Right Fucking Now” play list to learn. Chords are easy, but my decomposing brain has a time learning songs with long detailed lyrics.
Why Dylan songs are kinda outta reach.
As far as great 60’s music, I was watching a special fund raising NPR airing of “Concert for George” last night when this post came up.
Clapton, Jeff Lynn, Petty, McCartney, Ringo, Preston, Prince and many more, with George’s son Danny.
All the songs brought back a time, still with lots of problems we faced but the music was a great way to have a voice to educate and unite us.
Not sure music will fix this hell we face right now. But it damn sure can give us a place to escape for a few minutes.
Rock on!
