Dylan of the Day “ Bob on Paul . . . . . .

 

Linda, Sara, Paul, Greg Allman, Cher and Bob

“I’m in awe of Paul McCartney,” Dylan told Rolling Stone in 2007. “He’s about the only one that I am in awe of. But I’m in awe of him. He can do it all and he’s never let up, you know. He’s got the gift for melody, he’s got the rhythm. He can play any instrument. He can scream and shout as good as anybody and he can sing the ballad as good as anybody, you know so … And his melodies are, you know, effortless. That’s what you have to be in awe … I’m in awe of him maybe just because he’s just so damn effortless.”

Various Artists: Women In ROCK Part 1 (of 7!) : URBANASPIRINES

 Nice homespun and indeed homemade, compilation of the women of contemporary music from Kostas over at Urbanaspirines this morning and whilst I have most if not all the tracks it is well worth reading and checking the liner notes and downloading anyway!

Kostas says there may be exceptions and I thought well yeah obviously but . . . . . . .this is very comprehensive and we still have Vol II - VII still to go! Do you reckon anyone’s missing? If so, who? It even included women I didn’t really know (for shame!?) Angie New and Barbara Hudson? Anyone?!
