The times they are a-changing

But possibly not in the way Nobel Laureate Bob Dylan envisaged when he wrote that "protest" song back in the 60's.
Honoured by the Nobel Prize for Literature for his poetry, expressed through so many songs which were the background music to our generation, Dylan hoped that the old order was changing - but the generation he claimed to speak for is now the generation in power. The optimism of those summers of peace and love has blown in the wind. Perhaps Bob blew it when he went electric.
Off to play "Freewheelin'" again.
