The first song I ever heard by Bob Dylan was Mr. Tambourine Man, when I was about 7 years old and ever since then I have become aquainted with all his music. When I was 15 I flew to Tucson, Arizona to visit my sister (who went to U of A) and to go to a Bob Dylan concert. I was so excited that my sister took me because she was not very familiar with his music(we have very different taste in music). Sadly, I had to leave early because she got food poisoning...
I'm sorry for taking so long to do another post! School has been taking up a lot of my time lately.

love Love LOVE ! Thank you so much for this post; Bob Dylan is incredible. Excellent scans, a bunch i'd never seen.
Again - LOVE THIS !
My twin dated Suze Rotolo's son.
he is a great soul, and so is she!
The one of him smiling is so unusual, think it is the first tiem I have seen Dylan with teeth!
ps I misread that poster at first, I thought he was saying 'truth is cheese'. I almost wish he had been.
Once again such an amazing post. Thank you!! Which makes me think, as Dylan knew Edie Sedgwick and being a huge fan of her, it would be so amazing if you could do a post by her some day! Once again, thank you for this blog your work is amazing!
He is so trendy, more than ever, Stéphane
such a babe.
i have bob dylan sheet music tattooed on myself... he's the greatest man alive, really.

Mr Bobby Dylan I do adore...these are some great shots of him!
I love his comment about his hair... true that!
And his houndstooth suit!
He has a bit of Paul Newman about the eyes in some of these photos don't you think?
I went to see him a couple of years ago, I wasn't too impressed. I think with some bands i'd rather remember them as they were. x
I've got quite the soft spot for "Blood on The Tracks" why is it divorce albums from the seventies are so good?
Blessings to you in the New Year
Ah Dylan.. So amazing. But you know I saw him live in 2005 and he was so dour and didn't say hello. I think he's learned to laugh at himself a bit more now in old-er age.
Love him though!
I love this pictures..!
great photos! dylan is a favorite of mine for sure! he can do no wrong in my eyes :D i saw him in concert about 5 years ago, wish i could have been alive to see him in 60's or 70's...oh well.
please upload a post soon! i really love your blog and need it to continue with life / sweden
can't you do a post on zabriskie point by antonioni?
It won't really have success, I consider so.
Amazing pictures, he really was a cool dude, plus of course his music too damn good.
Please one more post about that.I wonder how you got so good. This is really a fascinating blog, lots of stuff that I can get into. One thing I just want to say is that your Blog is so perfect
If the 1960's is summed up by one person, it's Bob Dylan. Fifty years after he released his first album the question still remains: Who was he? And how did he come up with those words in which it has gotten other singers shot to death (John Lennon, Marvin Gaye)? I mean he was doing songs over ten minutes at a time (mid 60's) when music was on AM and stuck on two minutes!
