Joni said  "I'd never heard anger expressed in a song. And I thought, this
means it's wide open, you can write about anything. It was brilliant.  I
wrote poetry, and I always wanted to make music.  But I never put the two
things together.  Just a simple thing like being a singer-songwriter- that
was a new idea.  And when I heard Positively Fourth Street I realized that
this was a whole new ballgame; now you could make your songs literature.
And I began to write.  So Dylan sparked me."
