The Beatles Musical Extravaganza

I have been quite honest in the past about the song/s that changed the way I approached writing, especially use of metaphor and analogy - 'Brain Damage/Eclipse', the last 2 songs 9which i always think of as one song) on Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd (1973). This had such an impact on my writing. But Roger Waters (who wrote the pieces) has said that Dylan made it acceptable to write in such terms and about such topics - in this case, madness and mental health - whereas before no-one would dare approach it.

So, albeit in a roundabout way, Dylan has influenced my writing.
