In the US maybe, but in the UK, the group went on to have quite a few successful hits.

Both were poets, but Cohen was much more profound.

Listen carefully to a deeply stirring song about ego, one of his best.

Yeah, Dylan wrote that. But IMO, Hendrix performed it better. Here are examples of both, so the viewer can judge.





As a side note: That's how I feel about most of Dylan's songs. He's an amazing songwriter, but a mediocre performer. Put one of Dylan's songs in the hands of a talented performer, and you get something magical.

Yep, Hendrix took it in a whole new direction, which is the way a cover song should be.

Here is another Dylan song done just right by the Byrds. Lloyd Green's opening pedal steel riff is magical.



and Marty Stewart doing the same lick on Clarence White's B-bender.



and my attempt at the same pedal steel lick

While listening to that can you naturally hear Dylan performing it? If you can, I know I can hear a familiarity in Leonard's performance with Dylan's recordings. There's a belief that Leonard was behind all Dylan's material. Joanie called Dylan a plagiarist back in the time.
I tend to believe that there was specific subject matter of his material intended to be done by Dylan.

Apparently, this was the last "drop". I have to assume it hit too close to home for O/T's "Champion of Justice".

I think of Boondawg as someone who sacrificed his Pennock's membership for a greater cause.

When he first registered and still lived in Alaska he owned one.
Like lots of PFF members (myself included) he divested himself of it after a couple years.
I no longer own one but I have had as many as 5 at one time.

Haven't been in this forum before recently so the major personalities here aren't all familiar. Patrick is. He exhibits more rational behavior in the other forums, but out of sync with his presence here. olejoeddad (sp) has the same presence. I like Patrick way better in the other forums. olejoedad I like better here. Work on that guys.

I still have Fieros. One runs and drives but is down the list of drivers.

Leaving personalities out of it, I have owned 20 different Fieros, all but one were 88 Formulas or coupes. Still have two. One is a stock CJB T Top car the other is a 3800SC, 5 speed manual rocket. Bad knees make it difficult getting in and out. How’d you like to have another one? 😜
