But anyone could put a note on the outside of the door to re-direct a delivery. The delivery driver would be in trouble if he took notice of a note like that.
Fair comment. But leaving the parcel outside the property in clear view from the road isn't a great idea either. As there was no reply the package should have been taken back and a card put through the letter box.
Does anyone else find that in your more mature years that you appreciate some of the music that wasn't 'cool' at the time? However, there will some music you will hate until death.
Agree totally with Dylan. Also hate Meatloaf. But I became 'left field' at an early age, ignoring most of the radio-favoured stuff. Still love Camel & Tangerine Dream to this day.

I grew u with Radio Caroline North by day and then South in the evenings and at night and I don't recall either of those bands being played. I like music to be melodic, soulful and/or danceable and make me feel good or sad or reflective. Never did like stuff that hurt my ears despite the best efforts of a boyfriend to get me to like Johnny Winter and Emerson Lake and Palmer and the like. He had to go.

I think a lot of people don't get Dylan. What they don't get about various artists is that it's not always about having a pretty voice. If you compare The Byrds' jingly jangly sugary pop version of Tambourine Man [not even the whole song either] with his own you'd understand. The lyrics are key. I love Art Garfunkel, and he has one of the most beautiful voices to ever grace the earth, but he can't sing the blues, and it would be a mistake for him to try. Other people can't do what he could do, and shouldn't try. Horses for courses. Oh - and Bob can sing in tune - unlike Chris Martin, as I've said before. That's like nails down a blackboard for me. I won't repeat the comments my Dad made every time Harry Secombe opened his mouth, when I was a child. He was even worse than Chris Martin
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Absolutely agree @Fairygirl! You just have to listen to the Traveling Wilburys to understand that Bob Dylan uses his voice in whichever way he chooses, in the same way as one chooses particular instruments to give a specific sound.

But it doesn't matter how good someone tells you someone is does it? Like all tastes, your taste is yours. A chef may be brilliant, but if you don't like what they cook, you don't like it. A cook may use the best ingredients, a musician the best instruments - it matters not.
No matter how much someone tells me how nice broccoli is, or how good David Bowie is or how brilliant Tracey Emin is - they're not 'me'.
I daresay that's true @Dovefromabove, the voice is an instrument but Bob's still not for me. Now if we are talking Yes, certain Led Zeppelin and ELP tracks ...
I always remember playing "The long and winding road" by the Beatles, and my Nan coming upstairs to ask if l would play it again. Usually my music choices were "a dreadful noise" 😁.
Oh I agree … if you don’t like it that’s your choice … but it’s a mistake to think that because a musician doesn’t do something it’s because they can’t … that’s only fair if you know all their work. 😊
I mean … I’m not a fan of what I know of Mahler’s music … but that doesn’t mean that he couldn’t or didn’t write something I would like if I heard it.
