Jerry's take on Dylan makes perfect sense. Bob has been on a journey for decades...and this album surely indicates he's still on the path. The beneficiaries of the royalties from sales are those less fortunate in our society; this says alot about Bob and the Christmas Spirit.
If he has been following anything over the years, it must surely be the 'light'.

"CHRISTMAS TIME IS SPECIAL
FOR ALL FOLKS YOUNG AND OLD,
A TIME TO REMEMBER
THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD.

YES, FOR MANY YEARS AGO
A BRIGHT AND SHINING STAR
LIT ALL THE WAY TO BETHLEHHEM
THEY COULD SEE IT FROM AFAR.

A TRIO OF THE BEST
CAME MANY MILES TO SEE
A CHILD IN A MANGER,
SWEET JESUS WITH THE KEY...

THAT OPENED UP THEIR HEARTS...
AND ALL FOLKS YOUNG AND OLD
BEGAN TO REMEMBER
THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD."
Leslie Knibbs 1991


Merry Christmas Jerry. I write a column in a Northern Ontario paper, and like yourself I've been listening to Bob since the early 60s, enjoyed your piece on Dylan, good insight. Share my poem if you wish...peace and love. Mr. Les Knibbs.

I hope so too!!

What a nice way of putting it. I just love Bob Dylan and I hope he is happy. He has given me happiness and food for thought. He is amazing and I love the Christmas album. Thanx;)
