Tangled up in Seuss

More Synchronicity! Looking through the news box with Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited, Desolation Row playing, and up pops a story involving Dylan as though he were the Cat in the Hat come back. Actually it has very little to do with Dylan other than his role as an inspiration to an artist.
Kevin Ryan doesn't want to talk about his recent fling with Web stardom. He's a bit rueful and more than a little nervous about it, in fact, and wishes the whole thing would just go away.

If you missed his star turn, here's what happened: Ryan, a 33-year-old Houston music producer and author, went into his home studio and engineered a sort of retro mash-up of two of his favorite artists, Bob Dylan and Dr. Seuss.
And along comes Dr. Seuss Enterprises with a cease and desist telling him to take down the site, Dylan Hears a Who. While the original site has gone down, I found a few tracks here. Listen while you can.

I'll have to play that for The Boy. We read GE&H almost every night.
