The 2019 A to Z Challenge THEME REVEAL

AtoZ2019ThemeFor the 8th year in a row, I'm participating in the April A to Z Blogging Challenge, and today is Theme Reveal Day. For me, these themes are generally about books, music, travel, or food.If you've been following this blog for a while, you'll know about some of my previous themes (note: themes aren't required, but I do enjoy choosing a topic for the month). Here's a quick refresher, with links:2012 - Poets, Novelists, Lyricists (I was new to the game, but earnest)2013 - Oh! The Places I've Been! 2014 - Smile! And Say.... (the infamous cheese theme)2015 - Listen Up! (musical instruments)2016 - Paris Between the Wars (1919 - 1939)2017 - Broadway Musicals2018 - 1968I thought about doing a whole series on 1969, because there would be plenty to blog about, but I didn't want to repeat Apollo and Nixon and Vietnam, and so decided to try something new.Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in October 2016, and I wanted very much to showcase this iconic songwriter in 2017. But by the time he finally agreed to accept the prize, I'd compiled my month's worth of blogs, on a different topic.So here we are in 2019 and Dylan's songs, most of them anyway, ring as true today as they did in the 1960s. And he's been covered by so many artists that I thought I'd do an A to Z of his songs, but performed by others. And so...next month I'll post A to Z blogs about Dylan songs.Dylan
