<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">An easy one! Bob Dylan, born Robert Zimmerman.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">OK, so Dylan converted to Christianity (or perhaps Messianic Judaism) about the time Ronald Reagan became President. Interesting that many Jews feel his faith in Jesus Christ is a form of Judaism. I can see that! </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This article examines some of Dylan's life and lyrics from an Hebraic mindset: <a href="http://www.myjewishlearning.com/culture/2/Music/American_Jewish_Music/Rock_Music/Bob_Dylan.shtml" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>LINK</b></span></a></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">This article examines some pertinent aspects of Bob's Judaism: <a href="http://www.jewishledger.com/2012/05/bob-dylan-walking-in-the-footsteps-of-the-jewish-prophets/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>LINK</b></span></a> </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br />The following books take a long, and sometimes fun, look at Dylan's Jewishness:</span></span><br />
<h1 class="gb-volume-title" dir="ltr">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><b>"Jewhooing the Sixties: American Celebrity & Jewish Identity"</b> (I'm not making up this title!) by David Kaufman (2012)</span></span></span></h1>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Anthrax is a metal band <span style="font-size: small;">for whom I auditioned back in 1982 or 1983. Sadly, I <span style="font-size: small;">declined them, a bit arrogantly also, thinking their initial 45 "Soldiers of Metal" too generic. <span style="font-size: small;">But don't ra<span style="font-size: small;">zz me too hard! Johnny Zazula thought the same thing. Luckily<span style="font-size: small;">, they were amazing in the studio and transformed themselves into the raging heavy metal band they<span style="font-size: small;">'ve been for 30 year<span style="font-size: small;">s! Wow!</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Co-founding member, <b>Dan Lilker</b>, was also born to a Jewish family. He left after the first Anthrax album, <i>Fistful of Metal</i>, and went on to join Nuclear Assault and Stormtroopers of Death. Lilker acknowledges his roots but disengages fully from religion.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b>Dan Spitz</b>, another Jewish lad, joined Anthrax in 1982 or 1983. Dan played on the 45 and on the first three albums. He left in the early 1990's but returned in 2005 for another go-round. Dan has a very interesting biography, which you can read <a href="http://danspitz.com/bio/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><b>HERE</b></span></a><span style="font-size: small;">. Last heard, Dan was born-again Christian, coming through Messianic Judaism.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">And now, "S<span style="font-size: small;">oldiers of Metal<span style="font-size: small;">" with Ian/Lilker/Spitz.</span></span> </span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">For no apparent reason, we start with the bass player from C<span style="font-size: small;">anadian </span>power triumvirate Rush.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Is he Jewish? <a href="http://www.jewornotjew.com/profile.jsp?ID=997" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;"><b>LINK</b></span></a></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><b><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEF320HwGYs" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">HERE</span></a>, </b>Geddy speaks about his mother at Auschwitz<span style="font-size: small;">.</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There is some <span style="font-size: small;">kerfuffle over whether or not Geddy Lee is atheist. I<span style="font-size: small;">n</span> <a href="http://heebmagazine.com/a-show-of-hands-2" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;"><b>THIS </b></span></a><span style="font-size: small;">interview</span><b><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">,</span></span></b></span> Geddy is somewhat definitive about it. However, atheism is a state of mind, not a belief. As the lyrics say i<span style="font-size: small;">n Rush's "Faithless" (2010)</span>, "I don't have faith in faith, I don't believe in belief." But if Geddy returns to faith, <span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: small;">or begins again to believe, <span style="font-size: small;">I think I can guess his direction. And, by the way, Alex Lifeson is credited with writing that song.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Now, enjoy Rush <span style="font-size: small;">"YYZ" and "Cygnus X-<span style="font-size: small;">1</span>" live:</span></span></span></span><br />

I know I was, and therefore this compilation. This blog is in process, and entries will be ongoing, so check back often. <b><span style="font-size: large;">And now, e</span>njoy the music and the stories. </b></span></span><br />

I think you know what I'm saying.</span></span><br />
