The film features highlights of Dylan performing live: Highway 61 Revisited, Fixin' To Die, Man of Constant Sorrow, When The Ship Comes In, Only A Pawn In Their Game, Blowin' In The Wind, Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall, The Times They Are A Changing, Mr. Tambourine Man, Like A Rolling Stone, Tangled Up In Blue and many more!
    Bob Dylan (legally Robert Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer and songwriter. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning more than 60 years. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963) and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements. His lyrics during this period incorporated a range of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, defying pop music conventions and appealing to the burgeoning counterculture.
    Dylan was born and raised in St. Louis County, Minnesota. Following his self-titled debut album in 1962, which comprised mainly traditional folk songs, he made his breakthrough as a songwriter with the release of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan the following year. The album features "Blowin' in the Wind" and the thematically complex "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall". Many of his songs adapted the tunes and phraseology of older folk songs. He went on to release the politically charged The Times They Are a-Changin' and the more lyrically abstract and introspective Another Side of Bob Dylan in 1964. In 1965 and 1966, Dylan drew controversy among folk purists when he adopted electrically amplified rock instrumentation, and in the space of 15 months recorded three of the most important and influential rock albums of the 1960s: Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited (both 1965) and Blonde on Blonde (1966). His six-minute single "Like a Rolling Stone" (1965) expanded commercial and creative boundaries in popular music.
    In July 1966, a motorcycle accident led to Dylan's withdrawal from touring. During this period, he recorded a large body of songs with members of the Band, who had previously backed him on tour. These recordings were released as the collaborative album The Basement Tapes in 1975. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Dylan explored country music and rural themes in John Wesley Harding (1967), Nashville Skyline (1969), and New Morning (1970). In 1975, he released Blood on the Tracks, which many saw as a return to form. In the late 1970s, he became a born-again Christian and released a series of albums of contemporary gospel music before returning to his more familiar rock-based idiom in the early 1980s. Dylan's 1997 album Time Out of Mind marked the beginning of a renaissance for his career. He has released five critically acclaimed albums of original material since then, the most recent being Rough and Rowdy Ways (2020). He also recorded a series of three albums in the 2010s comprising versions of traditional American standards, especially songs recorded by Frank Sinatra. Dylan has toured continuously since the late 1980s on what has become known as the Never Ending Tour.
    Since 1994, Dylan has published nine books of paintings and drawings, and his work has been exhibited in major art galleries. He has sold more than 145 million records,[11] making him one of the best-selling musicians of all time. He has received numerous awards, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, ten Grammy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and an Academy Award. Dylan has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. The Pulitzer Prize Board in 2008 awarded him a special citation for "his profound impact on popular music and American culture, marked by lyrical compositions of extraordinary poetic power". In 2016, Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition".

    Charisma? I'd heard Dylan for several years before I ever saw him in person - I knew the word and its dictionary definition, but never knew what it MEANT until that day. He walked out on a bare stage in front of a sold-out house with nothing but an acoustic guitar, positioned himself in front of a single microphone and planted his feet like he owned the building - he just as easily could have been Julius Caesar or Napoleon Bonaparte - he just radiated power, magnetism and confidence in a way I'd never seen in my life. The crowd fell silent and without saying a word, he just started playing - no one's attention strayed for even a heartbeat until he stopped playing and walked off the stage - again, without saying a word. The place went crazy. I finally had experienced what charisma really means. There's really no way to describe it...

      John Hammond discovered: Bessie Smith, Bruce Springsteen, Benny Goodman, Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Robert Johnson, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Pete Seeger.
      Dylan's first three albums are not so good; tough listening. Dylan loved older blues black music and on his first 4 albums, on his original songs, he so often used the melodies of others, which was not uncommon in folk music. But maybe 20 or more original songs by him were plagiarized. I around 25; I once did that homework. He might have stopped plagiarizing on Highway 61, not sure.
      Dylan's top albums 1. Blonde on Blonde 2. Highway 61 Revisited 3. The Basement Tapes 4. Nashville Skyline - 3 great song - Lay Lady Lay, Girl from the North Country, I Threw It All Alway 5. Blood on the Tracks. Only 3 great songs (I can heard the protest) 1. You're a Big Girl, Now 2. Tangled Up in Blue and good 3. Shelter from the Storm.
      Best song not on an album: Positively 4th street, which was recorded for Highway 61 R. Jakob Dylan's best song: 6th Avenue Heartache.
      Jakob's top 5 bands include The Replacements, A great great band from Minnesota, his dad's home state. Jakob best cover: Neil Young's Expecting to Fly.
      Bob's favorite song: Wichita Lineman. A great song indeed.

      On the contrary, Dylan is the most "pop" of all pop music, if he hadn't been puffed by the media he never would have become so famous, MANY singer-songwriters are way better than Dylan! I get the feeling from your comment you think it's "sophisticated" to like Dylan, when in fact your fallling for a mediocre talent "puffed" by the media. Compared to John Prine, Paul SImon, James Taylor, and dozens of others - Dylan isn't in their class, he really isn't very good. But if you think it make you special for appreciating him - it's a free country (for now).

    Thank you very much for this fair, insightful, and respectful discussion and documentary!
    I love all of Bob’s dynamics and diversity of material and phases throughout his journey. There is nothing boring about him because he truly lives in the moment even though he is well versed and self taught in history, philosophy, sociology, poetics, theology, and many other disciplines. He is a keen observer and his deep thought considerations connect and synthesizes everything in a wholistic way. His creativity is a burning passion and is always moving. This is why he can be both disciplined (strong work ethic), and still be spontaneous in rearranging and revising his art and his life as he does. He is still on the move and I hope for a long time yet.
    Thanks again; looking forward to more!

    I dont know if anyone else can relate to this story about Bob Dylan.. Many years ago I was under the impression that Bob Dylan did not like or enjoy playing gigs/live shows. I dont know why. I think it had something to do with his demeanour on stage. I had never seen him live. I only saw film of live concerts.I was curious about this, being a live musician most of my life and I understood how important it was to enjoy what you were playing and the difference it could make between a good show and a bad show. I was puzzled to put it mildly. Some years later I came accross an interview with Bob Dylan. The interviewer asked. "Bob, you didnt look happy up there tonight, were there sound problems?" Bob answered, polite as usual.. "No, nothing like that. It's just very hard to sing" A hard rain is gonna fall"with a smile on your face.. The silly interviewer didnt get it and Bob went on to explain.. "Playing live shows is what I love to do and in some ways it's the only reason I record abums. The recordings promote my shows.I need to record in order to promote my live shows, which is what I really like to do best".. Needless to say, Bob Dylan,s answer knocked me for 6 but it should not have, now that I think about playing live shows. There are not many things to surpass playing a good live gig, especially when you have put your heart and soul into playing your own own songs. I have to say that was a real eye opener. Thanks Bob. You keep playing and I,ll keep listening.

    After watching this, I have a new different perspective on the song "All I really wanna do".
    He has this sarcastic taste of humor responding to the situation and the background story about what initiated the song. Very witty. There's no limit to it if you see the world in a metaeuphorical way.

    The phenomena already existed and several folk singers of the period tried to capture the zeitgeist. Dylan is the one the public decided suited the role best.

      Yeah, so much charisma I walked out of his concert in Portland early 1990's, it was so loud and horrible sounding (especially his voice) that I wasted my expensive ticket. AT least Santana did a good first set, his guitar cut through the bad acoustics of the Memorial Colliseum (square building).

    At the Birmingham exhibition Centre I complained to a security guy during the intermission that two guys in my section were having a loud conversation whilst bob was singing an acoustic section.
    He asked who I was with. I told him I was with a friend and he said "Go and get him."
    The guy then took us on a long walk - into the main central section to the middle aisle and right to the standing area below the stage.
    "Happy?" He asked.
    We both said yes and enjoyed the rest of the concert watching His Bobness from a few feet away.
    Not many people have looked up Bob Dylan's nose.
    I doubt that Bob himself has done that too often.

      I get ya, but like you said, an ARMY!! So The Band, the Wilburys, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, All who participated in his 30th anniversary concert - Every single one being influenced by his material. It goes on & on & on - esp with Bob!! So I totally get ya, but this certainly doesn't cover EVERYTHING. It left out a LOT, & it seems more like an introduction to a 10hr video!! Like I said, this CERTAINLY didn't cover much - just a basic overview. But I get your point. They could have been mentioned. Either Way - I Love Bob, & his music, & always will!! & Same With The Band, because they were their OWN entity in the history of R'n'R & I Love THEM - with AND without Dylan. Be Well - Peace!!

    I was 16 when Freewheeling came out. He grabbed my mind and soul then and has held them ever since. There are classic books which I like to read again every couple of years (e.g. Moby Dick). In a similar vein I like to relisten to Freewheeling through to Blood on the Tracks every so ofter. Dylan’s compositions are pure literature - as evidenced by the Nobel Prize.

    • @pharmerdavid1432
      @pharmerdavid1432 26 днів тому

      If you know anything about the Nobel Prize, you'd know how worthless it is. He also got the "medal of freedom" from satanic Obama, proving he is a sellout fake, probably a freemason satanist. Pretending to be a Christian then going back to satanism was disgusting, and he will burn in hell forever beginning soon.

  • @johnpaulsecond4626

    there are two kinds of Dylan critics: those that have seen the light, and those that haven't; Dylan shifts between the natural and the supernatural; his music is a pilgrimage, a journal, an autobiography, and if you can't respect and embrace that, you missed out on the real dylan; some say he gets better over time; that's perhaps the wonder of him, that from the get go he broke all the rules and wrote new ones, and he just hasn't stopped; not even today; love your work bob

    DYLAN and BEATLES ,music of my youth ,my generation was so lucky to have these musicians and the cultural changes they helped to bring about. Saw Dylan once in 80s he was awful, Tom Petty and Roger McGuinn were in the band and looked bewildered and embarrassed so he does have his off nights , thankfully Tom and Roger did a few of their own songs to start the show. A friend has seen him 6/7 times and says these "off" nights are not uncommon,I play his records his music and wordsmithery still strike deep his Nobel prize was well deserved.
