"All I can do is be me, whoever that is." - Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan's 71st birthday is today. Bob began his career at a local coffee shop a few blocks away from the University of Minnesota. Since then, his career has accelerated to be one of the most influential song writers of our time! Bob has influenced the music scene for five decades now.
In 2008, the Pulitzer Prize jury awarded Bob Dylan a special citation for "his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power." Last month, President Barack Obama named Bob Dylan as a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom. The Presidential Medal of Freedom is the highest civilian achievement award in the U.S.Not only is he a song writer and musician, but he has published three books. He has also had paintings and drawings exhibited in major art galleries. How amazing is it that this classic song writer is still on tour!! He is truly dedicated to his work, and we are truly glad he is! With that said, here's a classic for you to enjoy :)
