SACRILEGE #2: BOB DYLAN LAMPOON



"The waffle farmers got a chance to lob their pickle grenades..."
Gee! How waffle!
How does it feel, to no longer be a complete unknown...and the target of some jerks makin' fun of your hallucinogenic lyrics?
Watch out for the Yogurt People. Ketchup in your hair. Because..."17 Miles from Waukegan My Cantelope Died." That's the title of this very early Dylan parody. It's on the Harvard Lampoon's "Sheep" album (many years before the National Lampoon and their "Lemmings").
Sacrilege #2 in the continuing series. They're parodying Dylan!

What's it to ya, Moby Dick?

    Ah! Yes, we discussed this a while back, didn't we?

    '17 Miles...' Wow. It's been many years since I heard it, and now you've found it. Yay! And thanks!

  2. That whole discussion had me thinking about rock parodies and doing a series.

    The only reason I didn't start with this, is I already had Kate Bush converted.

    And you know with Bob, you think there's been a conversion, but you have to double check.
