I have to agree with Dan on this one. He’s an acquired taste.
I was always amazed at how good other groups/bands made his songs sound. For example, All Along the Watchtower, Hendrix. It Ain’t Me Babe, Turtles. Mr. Tambourine Man, Byrds. Even songs like Blowin in The Wind, Peter, Paul and Mary.
Not that I was a fan of his but I see him in August of 1971 when George brought him out for a few songs at The Concert for Bangladesh. It was quite a thrill. He sounded pretty good that afternoon.
