    Totally skipped right over Joan Baez who 'discovered' him after initially panning him. Brought him onstage many times when he was a nobody - after she heard his own compositions. He was barred from most clubs in the Cambridge MA folk scene (very big) and wasn't welcomed at most in the Village - because he wasn't very good. It's when she heard his own song she was floored (she thought he was a toad who chased her younger sister Mimi before that). He basically owes his career to her. How can you not mention Joan Baez in a Bob Dylan documentary?!!! Read "Positively 4th Street" by David Haidju - all about how it happened.

    Who cares where he got his name from.A name is a name.

  • @madlift

    There was an utterly inexplicable amount of time devoted to whether or not Bob Dylan had named himself after Dylan Thomas. What a bizarre detour.

    Bob Dylan has (to my mind) been a big big part of people's lives I'm seventy two next birthday and I aquired Another Side of....and it's been with me ever since. There's Bob Dylan and the rest, and most of the rest were and are pretty fucking good.!!! Thankyou for this appreciated.

    No machine could ever write those songs because machines have no soul.

    People always mention all the early immigrants like Iralian, Irish, Welsh, English ,European etc but they never ,ever mention all the Chinese immigrants.There were lots of them too! Also in Australia🎉🎉🎉Are they the invisible ones?

    I love the late comments complimenting Bob Dylan for bringing people into literature. He inspired me to read Moby Dick and THe Grapes of Wrath., Also tracing back his musiccal influences like Muddy Waters and Woody Guthrie, Cisco Houston, and oh so many others. When he mentions Rimbaud or other artists, writers, and historical figures like Emmit Till, i go look them up...and learn about them and myself.

    Love it. For years, I have been calling Subterranean Homesick Blues the first Hip Hop song. 100% agree with that.

    Being GenX i missed the Dylan of the 60s and half of the 70s- then in first year university in 1980 took a splurge and bought 2 live albums - Hard Rain and Live at Budokan. IT was those two Dylan albums that really got me hooked. And despite being an atheist I loved Slow Train Coming and Saved - would always listen to those two when the world felt against me and the chips were down.Then over the next 2 or 3 years bought every single Dylan LP available. As Beatle George once said " Bob is the gaffer" , and that he is.

  • @julianciahaconsulting8663

    I love the fact that the Nobel Committee gave Dylan the prize and that it pissed some people off - what would a Dylan milestone be w/o controversy and naysayers?

  • @ThomasDeLello

    Bob Dylan's paintings of late are magnificent. A lot of detail, must have taken a lot of time to do. Check them out sometime.

  • @user-ir3ob9nk2e

    Dylan is one of the precious few truly great songwriters of our age.

  • @janetleatham9772

    There are many Dylan bio's on You Tube, but none quite like this one. Very enjoyable with a nice flow. Thanks for posting this.

  • @marieholland8868

    A top video to re-watch on the eve of Bob's birthday! What an amazing life, what an amazing person who always knew his calling to write songs and entertain. Not a truer word spoken when it was said here that in 300 years Bob Dylan will be studied like many others who have achieved incredible Greatness. Happy 83rd Birthday Bob and may you keep going till you reach at least 100!

  • @StephiSensei26

    Thank you...Bob! I hope I live those 300 years into the future, just to tell kids about you!

    This was the best Bob Dylan interview. He's open about not needing any love from the crowd like a lot of performers do. He said to the interviewer when explaining his views "do you know what I mean? " I think he's being truthful and no Mr. Jones. 😎☯️🎶
