"Love is just a four-letter word"

"Love is just a four-letter word"
~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-)))

For 'L O V E' I took letters from a 'BLACKWELL'S ART & POSTER SHOP' sign in Oxford and fiddled around in Photoshop for ages and ages :-) But, I hear you say “there is not a V in the sign” :-)

I should say that I didn't remove the letters from the sign...just photographed them...honest :-)

From Wikipedia -
"“Love is Just a Four-Letter Word" is a song written by Bob Dylan, and long associated with Joan Baez.Written by Dylan somewhere around 1965, Joan immediately took to the song, and began performing it, even before it was finished. (In the film 'Dont Look Back', a documentary of Dylan's 1965 tour of the UK, Joan is shown in one scene singing a fragment of the then apparently still unfinished song in a hotel room late at night. She then tells Dylan, "If you finish it, I'll sing it on a record.") Joan first included the song on 'Any Day Now', her 1968 album of Dylan covers; she has since recorded it three additional times. Her 1968 recording was also released as a single. Dylan himself appears to have never recorded the song.”

True enough, it is just a word using four letters.

I have the old LP of Any Day Now. No he never did but did sing it at open air concerts a couple of times.

What a happy and colorful creation. I "LOVE" it!! (I did a framed needlework piece quite like this in the 70s.)

Oh yes, I recognize this song. You know, I never listened to a lot of Dylan's music aside from his popular stuff that was on the radio, but I am finding that I really like his lyrics. I do have one of his albums; "Desire" which I dearly love.

This is a really nice combination Roger.

Do you still have your "LOVE" creation? Could be worth a fortune now :-) I have a good proportion of his albums but I don't tend to listen to his recordings as much as perhaps I should! I am always listening to his compositions by other artists though :-) Thanks so much, Karen. And, I appreciate you adding my work to your faves :-)

You know Roger, I gave that to my mom for a present and who knows, it could still be packed away somewhere. :)

Yes, Mr. Dylan is a great song writer and it's nice to hear his work done by others, I do agree.
