You Who Philosophize Disgrace

I know I do that occasionally. How else can one live?

But I post to observe that William Zantzinger has died, surprisingly young.

Perhaps predictably, Mr. Zantzinger was no fan of the Dylan song or its composer, whom he called a “no-account [expletive]” who had distorted the facts of the case. He told Dylan biographer Howard Sounes, “I should have sued him and put him in jail.”

The link takes you to a performance of this utterly great Bob Dylan song. Watch it.

Labels: Bob Dylan, William Zantzinger
