I was looking up the lyrics to Dylan's "Desolation Row" today. A Google search sent me to his site. Some immediate strangeness here -- usually lyric searches send you to sites where listeners have transcribed the songs. But I got the official words from the official site. Instant credibility!
Then I noticed a bunch of play icons. I click one and I'm listening to the song -- the entire song, not just a clip. I click around to see what else is on the site -- and the song keeps playing. It's a beautiful thing. Then I discover he's got almost every song he's ever recorded on this site. Free streaming. Searchable.
I love Bob Dylan even more now. Check his site out. Do it. Now!
