I always liked dylan and respect his ability, although I have to admit that sometimes he is not at his best game. I find it fascinating that both ramblin jack elliott and phil ochs were missing from the documentary. ochs and dylan were sorta rivals and jack was the one that introduced bob to woody guthrie. i know from the jack elliott documentary that there is major bad blood there. anyone else catch it? cliff Posted 2005-09-27 2:06 PM (#334055 - in reply to #334054) Subject: Re: dylan documentary on pbs Joined: March 2002 Posts: 14842 Location: NJ I caught it. It WAS pretty good. I was never a big Dylan fan, but watched it from a "historical" aspect (and hey! . . . it's f*&%#n' SCORSESE!!) . . . I thought the Dave VanRonk/"HouseOfTheRisingSun"-thing was pretty funny . . . (that and the whole thing with the "stolen records":-) p8riot Posted 2005-09-27 3:31 PM (#334056 - in reply to #334054) Subject: Re: dylan documentary on pbs Joined: September 2005 Posts: 4 I watched it too. It was pretty good. What was the other choice? Broncos vs. Chiefs? I don't think so.
