Bob Dylan Trivia
|
- Appears on sleeve of The Beatles' "Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band".
- He was voted the 2nd Greatest Rock 'n' Rock Artist of all time by Rolling Stone.
- In February 1964 Dylan and three friends drove south from New York to see some of the US heartland. Dylan insisted they stop unannounced to see poet Carl Sandburg in North Carolina. To his lasting disappointment, Dylan left after some ten minutes when he sadly realized he couldn't get the venerable man of letters to take him seriously as a fellow poet.
- Awarded an honorary degree at the University of St. Andrews (Scotland). [June 2004]
- Borrowed lines from a Japanese book "Confessions of a Yakuza" for lyrics in the songs of his latest Album "Love and Theft" - the author was apparently flattered by this.
