Oh, a Dylan thread! Yaay! I've banged on about him many times here in the past but basically I couldn't agree more with John. I don't think his influence can be overestimated. But also, Julie!

Absolutely. It's a shame Joan didn't write more of her own stuff. I wonder if he really said her "poetry was lousy", the swine. Probably. The 1976 album "Gulf Winds" is her only album of all original material. This, the autobiographical epic title track, is extraordinarily good.
