Cider With Roadies

La V's elder daughter, prodigiously talented at 16, has got herself a gig playing electric violin with one of the better local rock bands. She's obviously doing this in the style of the great Scarlet Rivera because an innocent enquiry after the band's repertoire produced the following immortal exchange . . .
- They do covers mostly. There's one song that's really good. It's called 'Tambourine Man'.
- You mean Bob Dylan's 'Mr Tambourine Man'?
- Yeah, that's it. Someone called Dylan wrote it.
Brief pause.
- It's really good. Has he written anything else?

I've often wondered whatever happened to Dylan? I assume he was a one-hit wonder!
