You've really taken to use the word "chat" in a loose context, haven't you?

@poussyledzep John Lennon got shot because some lunatic thought if he killed John Lennon he would become as famous as John Lennon. Dylan started that political style of music that Lennon so heavily adopted even though dylan denied he was a protest singer quite strongly. And when Dylan was done with folk he become very surreal which Lennon also adopted and Mccartney did to an extent as well but he was more inspired by The Beach Boys Pet Sounds album. Sgt Peppers is Pauls version of Pet Sounds

@poussyledzep booby led the way. they all realized long & brilliant careers, but at the start, in 64' 65 he was further along the way to more poetic, and more deeply philosophical lyrics, and he showed the beatles they could move away from what they'd done earlier and re-define themselves stylistically with his move from folk to electric rock. they'd have done it eventually anyway, but i think his example may have been key to their quickly moving on to the very different Rubber Soul etc.

@muclesmarinara bobby was 2-3years ahead of the beatles in the "somewhat" more culturally more fertile NY folkie/arts scene when the beatles were giggin in the whore district of Hamburg,& in teeny clubs in Liverpool. Zimmy obviously had the head start. he wrote blowing in the wind while the beatles were writing "just seventeen". he showed the way, deeper lyrics, &that that you could define yourself as a recording artist, composer, moving away from folk. as the Beatles then did, from rockabilly

@poussyledzep well I love the Beatles for sure and have seen Ringo and Paul live but take all of Bob's songs from 1963-1970 and compare them to Beatles songs from 1964-1970 and I'm sure you would find more consistent quality in Dylan. Not that I don't love She loves you etc.

Times they are changing and blowing in the wind are great songs for sure, but the Beatles revolutionized the genre and dont forget that the beatles' career was very short comparing to dylan's career, otherwise they could write again and again ,imagine and all things must pass are the proof of time and this is why Lennon has been killed not Dylan.
How do you not love Paul McCartney?
I can't wait for the new McCartney-Dylan album. Its going to be great.
