john,
my favorite bob dylan album is 'self portrait'. on it, he sings in his old manner that made him infamous and the manner we first started hearing in 'lay lady, lay'. he changes depending on the song he is singing. i can't imagine liking the album as much as i still do if he had made the reverse choices. to put it another way, there are old movies where cary grant was the right choice and movies where humphrey bogart was the right choice.
