Here's a times-they-are-a/changing Bob DYLAN story

So in '65-66 I went off to college and apparently my main lesson bringing back for holidays was his Greatest Hits album with his raunchy voice and all.

And my classical music mother was *shocked* but let it go.

Then a couple of years later I was gone to the Navy/Vietnam and when I came back for Leave between transfer to my second ship, I naturally went to the old LPs and played that *same* album.

And Mother said, about Blowing in the Wind:

"We sing that - IN CHURCH!1"




The times they shore did change!
