Bob Dylan song draft

[billbuckner]

I'm going to take what would probably be the general consensus for 1.1, because it's just that awesome and I never get tired of it.

1.1 Like A Rolling Stone

Cool song. First time I've heard it.

[Gregg]

Alright, here is the order, 15 rounds, we'll say 8 hour clock on weekends, 4 hours during the week?

We'll start the clock on Tuesday but if everyone picks before then we can roll.

1. Erik
2. sheep
3. johnny
4. DMT
5. Gregg
6. Teenwolf
7. Lucky

Can we do morning and night? I can't do 4 hours during the week.

[Gregg]

It would have been my number one, too.

Me too.

Plus it is the song that kicked off Hendrix's rise to stardom at Monterey. Love both renditions.

[Lucky]

And, incidentally, the #1 selection in Rolling Stone's "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

[DMT]

Can we do morning and night? I can't do 4 hours during the week.

Can you be more specific? Eliminating weekdays would probably double the duration of the draft.

[Lucky]

Does anyone know how to pull up the old Beatles draft and Zep draft threads?

Uuuuuuhhh... :coinflip:

1.02 - Tangled Up In Blue

[Lucky]

Uuuuuuhhh... :coinflip:

1.02 - Tangled Up In Blue

Now I'm in trouble. Damned #7 pick. "Hey Alice, wanna get into this Dylan draft?" "Sure, just so long as we get Tangled Up In Blue."

Wow, there are a lot of great Dylan songs out there.

Like a Rolling Stone is the clearly the Walter Johnson ... without an obvious Babe Ruth, I'll pick a Ty Cobb ...

"I heard Hard Rain and wept, 'cause it seemed that the torch had been passed to another generation." Allen Ginsberg

1.03 - A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall

There is another song of similar ilk from Freewheelin' that I prefer ... but Hard Rain has a little more gravity to it ... plus I like the old footage of him singing this song.

Hard Rain 4th on my itunes Bob Dylan play count ... Rolling Stone 3rd, and I reckon numbers 1 & 2 could make it back.

Can you be more specific? Eliminating weekdays would probably double the duration of the draft.

No not eliminate weekdays. Some week days I can pick any time. Some weekdays I can pick in the morning before 8 am or after 5pm. I am asking to not skip me if I am a few hours late.

Would you like to trade up? I will trade spots with you.

I would have also picked Tangled Up in Blue if I had the second pick.

[DMT]

That shouldn't be a problem.

[DMT]

1.03 - A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall

This was going to be my pick, but I figured you'd take it.

[DMT]

1.04 Masters of War

Greatest protest song ever.

1.04 Masters of War

Greatest protest song ever.

Masters of War was the other song from Freewheelin' that I mentioned. It's one of my all time favourites.

I would have picked Masters fourth if our positions were reversed.
