WASHINGTON — Bob Dylan: folk-rock legend, poet- spokesman of his generation . . . and GPS voice? Maybe.

The enigmatic troubador said on his satellite-radio program that he is in negotiations with two car manufacturers to be the voice of their in-car navigation systems. Insert your own Dylan-lyric pun here about "no direction home" or "there must be some way out of here" or "how many roads ...?"

On his BBC radio show, he gave listeners a preview: "Left at the next street. No, right. You know what? Just go straight." He also noted: "I probably shouldn't do it because whichever way I go, I always end up at one place — on Lonely Avenue. Luckily, I'm not totally alone. Ray Charles beat me there." The Washington Post
