Some news from Itsuko Nishimura, a friend and fellow Dylan fan in Japan (via Expecting Rain): To be released on February 28, 2001 : a Japan-only release live compilation CD (SRCS-2438; title not yet confirmed). Read about it at Sony
Japan.
The Bob Dylan Collection and Exhibit has been part of the Hibbing Library since May of 1991. Read about the collection at the Hibbing Library web site.
The December 10th New York Times featured an article by Robert Christgau called "Folk Lore: A history of the music and its influence on all of American pop". Not suprisingly there is quite a lot of Dylan content.
Some images from a December 2000 Rolling Stone, in which "Like A Rolling Stone" was listed as # 20 in The Greatest Pop Songs of the Century or some such list.
