Re: Tambourine Trivia

2003-05-14 by liberatusvirus

Creighton,

To me, the Byrds' release of that song marked the moment when pop 
music became elevated to art. I'd always been a precocious pop music 
fan, buying records in my pre-teens during the 50s, and embracing 
the Beatles/British Invasion in the early 60s. But Mr Tambourine Man 
brought the experience to a whole new level--not that I understood 
Dylan's oracular/biblical take on language. It just sounded so 
romantic and ethereal for the first time.
