The music of the time was early jazz music. Jazz became popular in the speakeasies where alcohol was illegally served. Duke Ellington got his start working in joints that served illegal alcohol, the most famous being the Cotton Club in NYC. \nOnce prohibition was repealed, jazz became even more popular as it didn't require breaking the law to listen to it.

He has played so many types of music. Check out his blues playing, something he was into forty years before it became so popular in white America.

I think he would still be pretty popular even if he wasn't with the beatles. So many people loved his music when he wasn't with them, so why wouldn't they like it if he never was with them!?!?!?

No I don't think so. In order to become popular today you must possess no musical skills and have the songwriting abilities of a five year old. Bruce is just too talented.

Johnny B Goode.  In it, you can see the seeds of so much to come.  The fast, driving guitar is a staple of the music from the Stones to Metallica.   The storytelling aspects of the song lead to Dylan and Springstein's song.   And Chuck Berry's acceptance among whites paved the way for the people that invented Rock and Roll to gain a foothold among white america.     Plus, it's just a freakin' great song.

Arlo Guthrie. He also wrote it.

Well at the peak of his career in the mid 80's Michael Jackson according to surveys at the time was the most famous celebrity in the world. But of course now I think Madonna is far more famous and popular. Like her or not she has stayed at the top of the charts for over 20 years now. I believe she is more popular than ever.

LBJ was overly obsessed with his own popularity. He idolized F.D. Roosevelt and LBJ wanted to be just as popular as FDR had been. I read about this in an article which said that, one day, LBJ was walking down a corridor in the White House with reporters and, as the group passed a bust of FDR, Lyndon stopped, reached out his hand to caress the cheek of FDR, murmurred, "Such strong features," and then continued walking down the hall.\n\nBut, of course, he wasn't as popular. Sure, he won a landslide in 1964, but that could be attributed as much to weaknesses of Barry Goldwater as to the "strengths" of LBJ. One irony of his life is that, before he got into politics, he was a high school teacher who taught public speaking, and yet he himself was a lousy speaker -- so stiff, poorly delivered, and insincere. And even though he had some major accomplishments on the domestic policy front, acomplishments which should have won him major plaudits from his own party, instead he was hated by his own party for his Vietnam policy.\n\nI can't imagine that he'll ever rate very highly among the Presidents.\n\nI rarely talk about G.W. Bush.

Well, Bob Dylan would never have had any success if people ignored looks!

Although Stevie Ray Vaughan is far more popular today, B.B. King brought far more inovation to blues than almost any other guitarist.  His techinque is unique, but often copied by other players.  Listen to some of the old stuff before you make up your mind.

depends are what your asking. \n\ni'm guessing you meant to ask who i personally enjoy listening to more? in that case i would have to say nirvana. but i also believe that nirvana was in fact much more influencial and contributed more to the music of today. some people might say "well you can't understand him, it's a bunch of noise, they play wrong notes" or whatever, but think about that as you look at music today. a lot of popular artists copy this style, not to say that nirvana was the first (i would say bob dylan was one of the first to make undistinguishable lyrics popular) but they deffinately brought it into a new generation. their tendency to play wrote notes and do things in an unconventional way was a means of showcasing their "punkness". they did it on purpose to make a statement. bottom line, nirvana was and still is the epitamy of grunge. they did what they do better than anybody else.

Bob Dylan by far. Lennon was good but Dylan is a musical genius. His songs aren't just songs, they are stories.

I remember the Super Session album he was on back in the late 60's with Mike Bloomfield. Haven't heard any of his music for years. The song that first comes to mind is Season of the Witch. I believe he also played the great organ part on Dylan's original "Like a Rolling Stone", but I may be mistaken about that.

Bob Dylan. The A. stands for Allen. He was born in Duluth Minnesota. His grandparents on his fathers side came from Lithuania. He lived in Duluth until he was seven before moving to Hibbing where his mother Beatty Stone grew up due to his father contracting polio. \n\nHe listened to rock and roll and country on the radio and was in several short lived bands. He started calling himself Bob Dylan while a student at the University of Minnesota in 1959. His last name was taken from Dylan Thomas, the Welsh poet.
