Title: He's allowed to rest on his laurels, exaggerated or otherwise
Review: Re: "The Cult of Bob's" reaction of "he he he" (which is correctly spelled "hee hee hee") concerning the assertion that Donovan taught Lennon to pick an acoustic guitar, well, the "hee hee hee" is on Bob. This is widely documented in many sources, as most casual students of Beatles history know. And if Donovan was first to pluck a violin on a pop tune, or introduce elements of music from other cultures, he has every right to trumpet these things. He would hardly be the first artist to have exaggerated sense of influence on his field---and who's to say the claims are without merit? Who can pinpoint the "beginning" of world music influence in pop music? Maybe it was The Weavers when they appropriated "uh weem-uh-weh" from Africa in the early 50's. There are many potential "beginnings." None of this matters. Donovan's achievements are beyond question. Enjoy the read, get your knickers untwisted.
