Dylan interview in Rolling Stone’s 40th birthday issue

Thanks to Martin Cowan:

“I commend the 40th birthday issue of Rolling Stone mag to readers for the Dylan interview, in which our man responds in his usual gnomic fashion to some quite probing questions from Jann Wenner - including the following exchanges:

“JW - The title "Modern Times" seems to be a very deliberate statement?
BD - Well, I don't know. Can you think of a better title?

“BD - I don't set out with a title. It was something that probably just passed through my mind. Why, does it have some impact?

“BD (on Paul McCartney) - He's just so damn effortless. I just wish he'd quit.

“Well worth getting for Dylan's comments on "Modern Times", modern times, writing, singing, performing, and the atom bomb.”
