[TOMT] [Song] Bob Dylan, something about having not done something in a year

Open

I was just at the grocery and heard this song. The guy at the register only knew it was Bob Dylan. I believe he said something about not having done something in a year.

I haven't heard much Bob Dylan, but he sounded younger in the recording. Not older stuff.

Hmm… Blowin in the wind?

I think there’s a line like that in there and that was early Bob Dylan.

Blowin in the wind

It was a little more upbeat than this. I think there was literally a line like "haven't.... in a year"

The only other one I can’t think of is “Long and Wasted Years.”

It fits every metric you mentioned except it is a recent song not an early song. There’s a line in there, something like “haven’t seen you in 20 years”

I’m a pretty big Bob Dylan fan and I can’t think of any others. Check out Long and Wasted Years. Outside of that it might be the wrong artist. Bob Dylan has a very unique sound so you should be able to determine if it is him or not. He speaks rather than songs and has a whiny voice.

Hm... maybe I misheard the lyrics.

I guess if I can't figure it out here, I'll just have to start my Bob Dylan kick!

What's a good album to start?

Maybe Blood on the Tracks?

Totally from left field, but could it possibly be The Byrds - My Back Pages?
