Jeff Gage take a turn focusing in on Bob Dylan and his array of music. A sample paragraph:
"...Thus, saying that Dylan was ever a poet, much less a prophet, was always
misguided. Such words convey an exaggerated import for his work, not to
mention that they belie his craft. He's a musician, after all. Like so
much other great art, his was effective because of the possibilities
that it opened up, not because it could be reduced or defined.
Naturally, being called the "voice of a generation" never sat well with
him..."
