I still think of Dylan on a regular basis, though he was my guitar teacher in Dublin in the late 70s. He was such a passionate and creative soul, disciplined and yet restless. He taught me not only about music but about food - he was into macrobiotic food and way ahead of his time in a lot of ways.

I think of Dylan regularly, even to this day. He was my guitar teacher in Dublin in the late 70s. He was a very inspirational person, a great teacher. I had no idea of his very interesting life.

Fond memories of hearing Mr. Todd play in our home in Majorca in 1963 or 1964. I was just thinking of him and looked him up to find he had recently passed away. My condolences to the family.
