Gin and Tonic on Milk and Vodka, August 17th Playlist

"Because of the strength of Bob Dylan's songs, especially in his presentation of them, it is sometimes quite difficult to resist imitating him. But something did not allow me to become a reflection. I believe it's known as the 'ego'. Thus when Mr. Dylan's songs and I got to working together, I made some lovely discoveries; one being Dylan's own turn with the melody, whether his own or adapted. Another discovery - the young 'old' man; i.e. the wonder of how young Dylan can reduce to words such powerfully emotional content which comes out of wisdom usually attributed to a long span in time and living experience.... It has been a happy association for me; I wish the same for you.
Go well
Stay well
Odetta "
