The BBC reports Bob Dylan is in talks to become the voice of a new GPS system. File this under “too good to be true.”
Renowned for his raspy, nasally tones, the 68-year-old American gave his listeners a taste of what his directions might sound like.
“Left at the next street. No, right. You know what? Just go straight.”
He continued: “I probably shouldn’t do it because whichever way I go, I always end up at one place – on Lonely Avenue. Luckily I’m not totally alone. Ray Charles beat me there.” (bbc)
While this is the Best Idea Ever I can think of only one other person (besides myself) who would buy a Bob Dylan GPS. Unfortunately, I don’t think Robert Gruber owns an automobile.
