    capt'n crisis

    2 ears from john lennon until blonde on blonde? 1967. long enough. thanks for proving my point.

    "The Beatles met Dylan at the Hotel Delmonico in New York on 28 August. (1964) He offered to roll a joint, and the Fab Four had to admit they had never partaken before. 'Until then we'd been scotch and Coke men,' McCartney would say later. 'It sort of changed that evening.'"

    "The evening was the start of a long, albeit intermittent, friendship with Dylan, and they made arrangements to see him again when they passed through New York at the end of their tour."

    anyhoo, brightstar agree with you.......
