"meeting [johnny cash] was the biggest thrill of a lifetime" -bob dylan
i love reading about heroes when they were young, when they were still finding their own, and still getting starry eyed about their own heroes. i love the end of this video when johnny is tutoring bobby. and bobby, to quote joan didion: "Was anyone ever so young?"
and then, of course, there is this. a clean cut bobby with a mainstream country voice. but man, just seeing those two sitting side by side strumming the guitar like two buddies on a porch...
[this is 3 songs from that johnny cash show episode--delightful]

oh man, young bob dylan. I love Bob, because he was constantly thinking, one of the most dynamic personalities in American history, but he almost never denied that he was in the end, just a storyteller.
And Johnny Cash... wow... umm if we could get a video with johnny cash, bob dylan, john denver, and woodie guthrie together.. mmm.
