Robert Zimmerman was born May 24, 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota. His parents Abraham and Etsy ran a Scotch Tape store. They sold nothing but scotch tape. 

Young Bobby was a huge Rock n Roll fan and especially loved Little Richard. During the 1956 school talent show, Bob played keyboards and sang a Little Richard song with his band. The school principal cut them off and pulled the curtain and sprayed them with the fire extinguisher. By graduation night, Bob was ready to leave.

Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan went on to change the world. He is the single greatest lyricist of all time. His songs became anthems for the Civil Rights Movement and anti-war movement. His lyrics incorporated a wide range of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, defied pop-music conventions and appealed to the burgeoning counterculture.

Bob Dylan recently launched a line of chocolate anus molds to go with his line of Whiskey. The chocolate anus candies, are a mold of Dylan’s butthole. The new venture is called “Heaven’s Back Door” Candies. “It’s a perfect complement to the Whiskey” said Dylan “What could be better than a nice glass of whiskey and a chocolate mold of my bung hole. That is living. It doesn’t get any better than that man.”

Opera

In 2017 Dylan released an album that consisted entirely of Opera classics. Dylan’s voice is surprisingly powerful and he nails the opera vibe. He has a true knack for opera. Dylan is fluent in Italian and sings the songs completely in their native tongue. Highlight Tracks include: “Polovtsian Dance#2” by Borodin,  “La forza del destino” by Verdi, and something else by Verdi that we can’t pronounce. Dylan brings the house down when he performs “The Habanera” from Carmen. It is pure genius and brilliance in its most purest form. Dylan’s voice has the remarkable ability to range from Baritone to Countertenor. A ‘Countertenor’ is able to sing even higher than a tenor. This voice actually falls within a female’s voice range. Through the use of a man’s falsetto voice, the voice produces a sound that is sometimes described as “otherworldly”. 

In 2019, Bob Dylan Dropkicked a Fan for Taking His Photo Onstage! Bob Dylan erupted after a concert in Vienna Austria and attacked a fan. Dylan sent the man to the hospital with broken ribs and a harmonica in his rectum. Happy Birthday Bob Dylan. An amazing legend and influence.
