Yorkshire Music: News and Updates

On 4th of this month I wrote a blog about Bob Dylan's remarks with respect to the quality of recorded music in this day and age. In summary, he told Rolling Stone that a decent record had not been produced in the last couple of decades and this was largely because of the rise of digital recordings. Because these digital tracks were so worthless, infact, that he went on to say that he is not concerned about music piracy across internet peer-to-peer networks because what the users of these programmes are sharing is not worth anything anyway.

And, yet, adverts currently running on British television to promote Bob Dylan's newest album do so in conjunction with iPod and iTunes - the Apple-branded mp3-style technology! Is Dylan being ironic here? Or is something fishy going on??

Your guess is as good as mine!
