So Bobby begins with Buddy Holly and brilliantly ends with Homer.

On his journey he gives 3 book reports on books that influenced him and his songs.

In his acceptance of the "Nobel Prize for Literature", he asserts that songs are NOT literature in a speech that sounds like an extended song lyric! Included is a lyric fragment from Ricky Nelson's "Traveling Man".

There's now a version of this on youtube that has the text shown as he speaks. I could easily hear every word he said, so for me, the print was superfluous.

I felt I was listening to brilliance. I could connect some of the dots, but it's Bobby, after all, so being inscrutable is part of his magic.

27 minutes that was absolutely worth my time and attention.

THANKS for this link!
