What a bunch of horseshit.
The entire plagiarism accusation is based off one album "Love & Theft" in coincidence with a book. You'd have to be in some isolated island to truly have iconic original music. Every artist one way or another plagiarizes off someone's work. It wasn't like Dylan took some guy's song, and started claiming it was his own. It simply a collage of memories for Dylan, he probably picked up the book, read it and it inspired him.
...having lyrics be word for word from a book is still plagiarism
Alright, maybe he plagarised, but honestly that doesn't change too much about how i feel about the man. Don't get me wrong, i think plagarism is a completly bullshit way to gain fame, but regardless of the fact that he may have stolen lyrics he's still an amazing performer. If you had never been told about the fact that he plagarised some of his songs you would still love the man now. That's my input
(favorite song is Hurricane by the way. DAMN i love the live version of that song)

i saw him at the bob dylan show april 1, 2006? or 2005 he didn't talk at all the whole time, just came out sang, then indtroduced the band then left. bad ass concert though
bob dylan has always had something to say
he`s been writing thought provoking music for coming on 40 years now
he`s the nuts
any true dylan fans read chroniicles,a must read
He had good lyrics, but I find him one of the worst singers I've ever heard. I can't stand his music. I'd rather read his lyrics in a book then by his songs.
