Description: Song originally written by Syd as a teen during the height of Bob Dylan mania in Europe (pre-Pink Floyd). During the recording of one of his solo albums (post-Pink Floyd), Syd was reminded of this track by producer David Gilmour & encouraged to record it. That tape stayed in Gilmours possession for 30+ years until released in 2001. In "Bob Dylan Blues", Syd not only composes a song poking fun at all of the Bob Dylan hype, but manages to do it in Bob Dylan's own walking blues style! The music video is by director Jimmy Lee. It was made during his freshman year of college at Temple University in Philadelphia. This was his first attempt at editing a video on a computer.

columbusclipper ::: Favorites You are full of hot air. Comparing Dylan and Sid is insane anyway. 07-09-04 18:57:29 _____________________________________________________
doors123 ::: Favorites The start of this song is very similar to wish you were here. I wonder if they were inspired by the Bob Dylan blues riff when they composed Wish you were here. 07-09-04 16:18:32 _____________________________________________________

2006moorem ::: Favorites On what basis could you possibly disagree? 2 years of junkie ramblin as as apposed to 45 years of redefining folk, country, rock and roll, lyrics, attitudes,interviews, radical reinterpretations of major works, fearlessly inventive, dangerous and could't care less who he offended, upset or inspired. Syd was his wide eyed student. 07-09-04 00:19:52 _____________________________________________________
2006moorem ::: Favorites Why must you compare a couple year wonder with a a 40 year plus ouevre of undisputed genius. From freewheelin to modern times, Plus dylan could take 3 times the drugs syd could take. Big girly lightweight that he was. 07-09-04 00:01:00 _____________________________________________________
ultimategoobah ::: Favorites lol. there's only what you dig. there is no "better" it's a people thing not a skill thing. unless you consider connecting with people a skill, but i think it's usually done more when you're relaxed and not trying to improve, but rather just have fun. 07-08-31 07:30:18 _____________________________________________________

JosephNScott ::: Favorites "what'd he do to help anybody but himself?" Gene Simmons of Kiss called Bob up and said he'd like to write a song together, and Bob said okay and came over to Gene's house and they did. If Bob took himself as seriously as his fans do he would have been too good for that, I guess. 07-08-26 17:42:10 _____________________________________________________
