By a wonderful coincidence, today is also a very special day to celebrate for any music lover. Today is Bob Dylan's 70th anniversary. And to commemorate such an important date, here goes a playlist (one of the toughest I ever made) with my favourite songs of his entire and formidable career, a career and a myth that goes beyond any other musician. Why 18 songs? Well, I started my relation with Dylan with an old cassette tape a friend gave me. I was 15 then. The cassette has 18 tunes (I still have it), it was a sort of best of. Several songs included there are making this list after many years.
So, Happy Birthday Bob, happy b-day Jokerman!
