Bucklen: What’s the best kind of music?
Dylan: Rhythm and Blues.
Bucklen: State your reason in no less that twenty-five minutes.
Dylan: Ah, Rhythm and Blues you see is something that you really can’t quite explain see. When you hear a song Rhythm and Blues – when you hear it’s a good Rhythm and Blues song, chills go up your spine…
Bucklen: Whoa-o-o!
Dylan: When you hear a song like that. But when you hear a song like Johnny Cash, whadaya wanna do? You wanna leave, you wanna, you – when you hear a song like some good Rhythm and Blues song you wanna cry when you hear one of those songs.
