I'm listening now..nothing new yet...

it was only about 15 minutes at the most....

Yes, I would have liked more, especially as it started at 6am Sunday here in eastern Australia and I set my alarm for it.

But I found the following comments interesting:

"I have terrific overlap ... I've only plagiarised myself 3 or 4 times."

(When asked if he would write his autobiography) ... "My record is in the songwriting." (I remember the late Peter Allen saying something very similar.)

(The main reason he wrote the song about the Edmund Fitzgerald shipwreck) ... "It wasn't getting enough attention."

wow. i missed the whole interview while i waited for my computer to load up the radio station. I only got to hear the beautiful songs at the end. bummer! I hope it was an interesting interview.

there wasn't anything new-went to school in CA, started music as a 6 year old, appreciates nice things Dylan said about his tunes and when others cover his tunes. his songs are his life story-lots of trauma like everyone else. theylove the work, none of them are getting any younger but they're fit. I think he implied that he's been watching the political stuff when he said he's been watching the storm but that could have meant HUrricane Isaac. He has said in prior chats that he watches the political stuff as entertainment. lol

I took the "storm" to mean Hurricane Isaac. He continued straight on with "We've been going down there for 35 years" and elaborated on concert tours.

"Entertaining" is one way to put it. It's reached the point where I can barely bring myself to turn on the television at times, and I'm a political junkie myself.

BTW, thank you Char, for all of the articles, and postings over the past several months, in addition to that cool interview you conducted with the man himself.
