Bob Dylan... My husband was watching rolling thunder revue on Netflix, Omg never knew anything about him before apart from he was an American singer but I think i'm in love!!
If time machines were ever invented i'd go back and kiss him in a heartbeat Blush
I've already listened to about every album I can find, Blonde on blonde is my favorite and I can now say i'm a huge fan!!!
He was gorgeous. Holy shit.
This clip of him... His eyes...
Blushes and runs away into the darkness

Leonard Cohen was both hotter and a better songwriter.

No way, too skinny.

Has he got a third hand in his strides??

CounsellorTroi · 26/10/2020 17:24

The young Roger Daltrey did it for me

There’s certainly a lot going on down there, isn’t there!! Shock

Not my type, but I have to admit that I do think he looks particularly handsome on the cover of The Times They Are A-Changing’ album.

Always loved his lyrics and have see. Him live a few times, but never found him attractive.

The love of Dylan is weird. If it gets you, no one else matches up. I got back into his work about 12 years ago, when he launched his paintings, and I now cannot go a day without listening to him. His concerts are like no one else's. He doesn't talk to the audience, doesn't play his greatest hits, doesn't introduce any of his songs, just comes on, plays for a couple of hours, bows and goes off. Until Covid stopped, he has done at least 80 gigs, worldwide every year since the mid 80s, he rarely does interviews, he grumbles and groans through his concert, and yet, if you get it his shows are unsurpassed by anyone else. No one in my circle like him, I get constant stick, but boy has he added a layer of pleasure to my life, that I haven't had since the 60s. Oh and he turned 79 this year, and still looks great.

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 26/10/2020 17:48

Ooh yes to Robert Plant and Roger Daltrey, and they both look great still. I’m fighting the urge to post a pic of a young Barry Gibb and the young Ozzie Osbourne was particularly lovely

Good job we don't all go for the same type, I mean if everyone felt like me Donald Trump would never have found a partner, same with Boris Johnson. Actually thinking about it I don't think I go for politicians as I can't think of one that I'd think was hot by 1970s standards or todays.

Thank you.
I love Dylan’s music and have seen him live many times. Also a huge lover of Cohen, David Bowie has my heart though!

alltoomuchrightnow · 26/10/2020 17:50

JM, absolutely. I'm going through yet another JM phase right now and playing The Doors non stop

ancientgran · 26/10/2020 17:51

I went to NCT classes with Ozzie Osbourne's first wife. She was very attractive, she seemed very sophisticated to me.

Daphnise · 26/10/2020 17:52

Yuk!

Desolate2nite · 26/10/2020 17:54

Bob Dylan on live aid 😍😍

RuffleCrow · 26/10/2020 17:55

he's a bit niche. Looks wise.

If i had to pick a male 60s icon i'd ģo for Jimi Hendrix. Women would be harder to choose as they all looked bloody gorgeous.

ancientgran · 26/10/2020 17:56

I thought Paul Newman took some beating, he had a bit of a look of a statue of a Greek God. Even as an old man he was attractive (well he was to an old woman.)

anon444877 · 26/10/2020 17:59

Absolute genius - utterly selfish and self absorbed though. Diamonds and Rust is a great song, it's too bad her big love was unrequited.

JeremyIronsBenFolds · 26/10/2020 18:01

I met Leonard Cohen nearly ten years ago and he was incredibly charming and lovely. Even though he had over 40 years on me I still very much would have Grin.

EdwardCullensBiteOnTheSide · 26/10/2020 18:04

Ooooh no, there is nothing nice about him in that clip!

Zara811 · 26/10/2020 18:05

Yes to Dylan. Yes to Cohen. And Bowie. And Jeff Buckley (though he's 90's of course).
