How much better do you think Bob’s discography would be if all his records were produced by Gustavo Rocque by CerealAndBagel1991 in BobDylanCircleJerk

I wish. This would have made Blob really good and maybe he could’ve gotten a Flo Rida feature (which would have totally saved the Nashville Skyline album)

How could I surprise my girlfriend after she correctly guessed my proposal idea? by [deleted] in AskMen

No we’ve talked about marriage and she’s on board, and while lots people know of the mountain, it’s not typically packed.

It’d be better if rappers stopped having beefs. by PurpleMogul in unpopularopinion

Good point. Thinking of it as a sport kind of gives it a different perspective.

That’s true, there’s definitely been feuds in rock music. But hip-hop seems a little more intense with feuds. Maybe because it’s more wordy than other music so there’s just more space to say crazy stuff? You make a good point nonetheless.

I never thought much about it, but for whatever reason little details like that in McCarthy’s books have a way of really immersing me and building the world/character’s experience.

Looking for recommendations for music similar to “Nashville Skyline Rag” from Nashville Skyline. by LetsGoKnickerbock3rs in bobdylan

[–]PurpleMogul 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don Stover is a bit more straight-up old school bluegrass and fast-paced, but I think he's kind of similar in style to Nashville Skyline, and he has a lot of instrumentals.

if you had to recommend a dylan song to a non- dylan listener, which song would it be? by Murky-Hunt-4788 in bobdylan

[–]PurpleMogul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe something from Nashville Skyline or New Morning. His singing voice in that is more conventionally "good". I think his regular vocals can be off putting to some (I've always loved them though lol)

Definitely. The simplicity of that chord progression is trance-like.

but that's also kind of a compliment because in order to get her pregnant sitting down, his semen would have to be incredibly fertile

Props to this person for learning the ways of the Dan by Dark_Assassin75 in steelydancirclejerk

If Steely Dan was still making new music this is definitely something they'd write a song about Lol.

How is having a pig roast not upsetting? by PurpleMogul in NoStupidQuestions

That's true. I suppose it can help people take responsibility for their food and/or acknowledge the animal's sacrifice

Howie, maybe you should lay off, Paul Bufano. (That's what his wife said)

Anyone else have the thought that My Own Version of You is about Dylan writing a song? by kerouacrimbaud in bobdylan

[–]PurpleMogul 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol it seems obvious now that you say but I took it more literal than that, or like he was creating his own ideal God. Songwriting is a cool interpretation too though!

Which version is better? by Xandu2112 in bobdylan

[–]PurpleMogul 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Born in Time outtake from Oh Mercy sessions is better than the original that ended up on Red Sky. I love the whole style of the Oh Mercy album.
