[vc_row][vc_column][vc_message message_box_color=”mulled_wine” icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-quote-left”]Playing Dylan’s songs empowers you. It bolsters you to say what your spirit needs to say. Even though Dylan has been completely deified, he’s taken all the spiritual journeys we plebeians go through. In his search you can see the patterns of humanity.
