Literature Noble to Bob Dylan: Times they are a-changin’

A singer-songwriter and composer, an experimental musician, Grammy winner, Oscar Winner, Pulitzer Prize holder and Now a noble for literature! who he is? the answer my friend is blowing in the wind- He is none other than Bob Dylan. Yes ! an American Musician has won the Noble for literature. It is most ironical that when America is busy in its most dirty Political Battle of all time and the American music Industry is busy in producing porn music the Alfred academy have decided to put its faith in the 75 years old, undisputedly the most influential songwriter in American Music industry. 

Bob Dylan’s Politically loaded lyrics along with his peculiar tapering voice layered with the continuous strumming of metal strings of a guitar transfix you and his lyrics linger on into your mind leaving its sublime effect inside you soul. Dylan Has given new dimensions to the American folk songwriting tradition and music.

During Sixties His “times they are a changin” and ” Blowing in the Wind” released and instantly attained Anthem like status for the Hippies and Civil Rights Movement rebels.
