Bob Dylan’s Stealing of James Damiano’s Songs
It is publicly and judicially acknowledged and uncontested by Bob Dylan that Bob Dylan and people in Bob Dylan's entourage have solicited songs, lyrics and music written by James Damiano for a period of over ten years and eleven months.
No artist can lay claim to the controversy that has surrounded the career of songwriter James Damiano. Thirty two years ago James Damiano began an odyssey that led him into a legal maelstrom with Bob Dylan that, to this day, fascinates the greatest of intellectual minds.
Since auditioning for the legendary CBS Record producer John Hammond, Sr., who influenced the careers of music industry icons Charlie Christian, Billy Holiday, Bob Dylan, Pete Seger, Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Ray Vaughan , James has engaged in a half a billion dollar copyright infringement law suit with Bob Dylan.
As the curtain rises on the stage of deceit we learn that CBS / Sony international recording artist, Bob Dylan not only used music and lyrics written by James Damiano but also solicited Mr. Damiano's songs for a period of over ten years and eleven months.
Bob Dylan's name is credited to those songs one of which was nominated for a Grammy as the best rock song of the year. Ironically the title of that song is Dignity.
