Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature because of his lyrics. But also his delivery of those lyrics is sublime - he sneers his way through this song. His live performances from the 60s and 70s are something to behold! And he’s still going strong, albeit with a voice that more like a tin of rusty nails than a sneer these days!

Dylan just this week sold the rights to his songs (over 600) for estimated $600 million. I've listened since 1962, seen him perform in,74. 83, and 2017. His creative output and genius is unique.

Yeah, Dylan's all about the lyrics, and so it's important to be able to really hear what he's saying. Definitely a good choice listening to the studio version first. Glad you enjoyed it so much. One of the best songs to showcase his song-writing talent. Might want to listen to "The Times They Are A-changin'," by him.

[@w.geoffreyspaulding6588]

New subscriber and joined because of Zeppelin and Floyd and Queen. But Dylan....what a cultural icon and force in the counter-culture youth movement of the mid to late sixties he was! He was a very reluctant “troubadour” and did not want to assume the mantle of “voice of his generation”....he just wanted to write and perform his music. Well, he became the voice of his generation anyway in those years and along with Joan Baez were instrumental in mainstreaming the folk music movement in early sixties which morphed into folk rock of The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield, Crosby, STills, Nash and Young, James Taylor, Neil Young, Joni Mithcell etc. etc. etc. Dylan recently won the Nobel Prize for his poetic lyrics.....I think the only songwriter to have received such a lofty honor. Whether or not people think he deserved it is another question. The fact that he received it speaks volumes to his status as an icon of a period of cultural and social history. This was the longest song to receive AM radio play up that time...7 minutes, and only because of the status of Dylan. I was 17 at the time, and I and my friends were very proud that we memorized the entire song and would sing along.....that was very important back in the day....

[@jotacalvo]

Even if you don’t like Dylan, there is no denying his amazing talent. IMO he does deserve every accolade he’s received. He WAS the voice of he 60's. And he is the greatest songwriter of the 20th century. I will add, though, that in my humble opinion, The Boss is just behind him. Springsteen's lyrics hit me just as deeply.

[@sallyg.125]

Tangled up Blue is a must! One thing about Dylan as that he kept reinventing his music with the changes in his life. Never dull. He will definitely go down in history. Thanks for posting

I'm glad this reviewer liked it and gave it a 10. But has he been living under a rock? How can anyone be unaware of Dylan? He's given us great music for 60 years, and it ain't over yet.. We grew up with him. This song was voted by Rolling Stone magazine as being the best rock song ever. EVER! Many of the comments below are spot-on.

[@joannevincent2035]

Yep - hard to believe anyone is unaware of Dylan. I mean this song was produced before the Kennedy assassination - and it's a milestone in American pop music.

[@blitztim6416]

He’s young

[@TheGroucho66]

I fully recommend reacting to his song 'Positively 4th Street' (again, I would use the official Bob Dylan channel to avoid getting an accidental cover or something). Dylan is mainly known for his lyrics rather than his musicianship or singing (although I personally like those things about him as well) and he even won the Nobel Prize in Literature for his poetic contributions in his songs so I would pay particular attention to his lyrics. A few other Dylan recommendations for reactions: 'Mr. Tambourine Man', 'All Along the Watchtower', 'A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall', '4th Time Around', and 'Subterranean Homesick Blues'. His most famous songs are 'Blowin' in the Wind' and 'Don't Think Twice, It's Alright'.

Jimi Hendrix’s version of AATW is my favorite.

[@victorwilburn8588]

The organ was a last-minute addition. Al Kooper wanted to get on the track somehow and basically snuck in to play the organ part without really knowing how to play. In many places, you can hear him coming in a half-beat after chord changes as he has to listen for the chord change first. But Dylan liked it and kept it.

[@ronnie237]

[@woodysthoughts4032]

I was never into drugs, but this song came out as I left my childhood home and family and struck out on my own. Everything was so exciting with my newfound independence - the song brings back fond memories of that happy fleeting time before the draft board ordered me to go get a physical and I was thrust into another world. Never got back to my former life. It's gone. The music is all that's left of it.

This is when he did the unpardonable sin (at least to the folk singers of the time) to go electric and his influence just increased from there.

[@alexjohnson2068]

Dylan, the best of the best. Thank you.

[@georgecoventry8441]

Yeah, this was the very first Dylan song I actually listened to...at age 21, and I am not exaggerating to say that it changed everything. It's incredible. I liked it so much that I stopped the record player, put the needle back at the beginning, and played it twice more before listening to the rest of the album....which was all great. I'd heard of Bob Dylan for a few years before that, but I'd only really heard covers of some of his songs, done by Joan Baez and some other folksingers....and I loved them, but I didn't know how they would sound when Dylan did them himself. After I'd heard "Like a Rolling Stone", though, I wanted to hear every Dylan song done by him, because he does them the best by far. He is intense, and his way of delivering the lyrics is unforgettable.

[@JoeSmith-ey2xp]

Dylan was rapping before there was rap.

[@joelliebler5690]

[@jnagarya519]

Woody Guthrie and other Black talking-blues musicians were doing "rap" before there was Dylan. And "rap" doesn't compare: no melody, and over-rhymed in keeping with the ignorance that poetry is all about rhyming. Dylan's rhymes don't call attention to themselves -- which is real art.

[@sharonhoyt2133]

Thanks for one of the most thoughtful and accurate reflections on Dylan and this song. Decades ago a friend and I drove from Atlanta to Jacksonville Fl listening to this song on repeat the entire trip. It was so much fun to hear this song with someone who appreciated and loved it as much as I did. Dylan always attracted people who wanted to be a part of his music and would just show up and ask to play with him and somehow it always seemed to add something. Al Cooper showed up for this song and wanted to play the organ even though it wasn't originally in the plans...of course it added a lot and has a permanent place in this song. If you watch David Letterman's 10th anniversary show with Dylan singing this song you will see a lot of famous musicians who were happy to join him on the stage. A lot of musicians wanted to add to their resume that they had played with Dylan especially on "Like a Rolling Stone".

[@magnuslauglo5356]

Dylan's influence was instrumental in transforming rock 'n' roll into rock. He's a lyricist but also a wordsmith - the way the words are put together would probably sound beautiful even if you didn't understand English. Words aside, he's also underr-ated for his melodies. Bruce Springsteen described hearing this song for the first time as "having the door to your mind being kicked open".

Just like everything he's ever done, from Shelter from the Storm, All along the Watchtower, Maggie's Farm..sings songs of life, love, and the thing all we have in common, suffering, laughing at the devil, in the midst of that suffering, with LA traffic finger waving...Hurdy Gurdy Man comes singing songs of love...

[@gregmoorhead7203]

You might find this interesting. The guy playing the organ said he just happened to be in the studio that day and wasn’t supposed to play on this song. Mainly because he didn’t know the song and they didn’t have sheet music written up. Also, he really wasn’t an organ player...he typically played guitar. So, listen again and notice, the band changes from one chord to another then the organ does. He’s typically one beat behind because he’s having to watch the guitar players to know when to chords change. He said as the song moved along, he got more and more comfortable and started adding little solo nuances. After they finished this particular recording you just listened to, he told Bob he was one beat behind most of the time but Bob loved it the way it was....he said it added a certain flair/character. So, they released it flaws and all and I LOVE IT!!!

[@TheReubenKincaid]

That is Al Kooper. When the producer Tom Wilson played the song back, Dylan asked him to turn up the organ ...Tom replied,,, oh man he’s not even an Organ player...Bob replied, I don’t care, turn it up...Kooper out of sheer determination, and as he calls it bullshitting created an influential sound as it was heavily copied after. In interviews, Kooper tells it. He knew he wasn’t playing guitar because the great Mike Bloomfield held that seat. He wanted in on the session. During the session, Wilson the producer moved the organ player tot the piano. Kooper then told Wilson he had a part in mind to play, Wilson replied, man tour are guitar player not an organ player...so Kooper snuck in and sat at the Organ...he claims he was lucky it was already turned on because firing up a Hammond takes 3 steps. When ready to roll tape (There is a recorded studio chatter of the talk back) where Wilson can be heard saying to Kooper and laughing “What are you doing over there.? but to his credit he let it slide, and out of Kooper bullshitting determination he put a cherry on a historic tune. Look up Al Kooper...Like a aRolling Stone and hear Al tell the story.....

Live Dylan performances are difficult. He never sings a song the same way twice. He changes tempo, etc. The official version is usually the best for listening. If you want to hear more, listen to albums Highway 61 Revisited, Blonde on Blonde, and Blood on the Tracks.

[@zenhaelcero8481]

True that Dylan rarely ever does songs live the same way. Though there are some live versions of Visions of Johanna that blow the original out of the water.

[@snakelite61]

There's an uptempo version of Visions of Johanna on the Best of the Basement Tapes which was recently released. It has grown on me. Same for the up tempo version of Hard Rain. I hated it on first hearing, but it's brilliant.

[@mrjules1982]

That's maybe the thing that, over time, I've grown to admire most about him. That he never stays in the same place, always moving on. His songs may be recorded on an album at some point in time, but they are never truly finished and keep evolving along with him. His Bootleg series provide such a great catalog of how his style just keeps changing and it gives us so many alternative takes on those songs that we love. And there are several songs on there that I loved in the original album version, but love even more in some entirely different live version from years later. Talk about a rabbit hole...

Fabulous song by Dylan, as are all of them. When this album was released, the back story is that on the evening of July 25, 1965, Bob Dylan took the stage at the Newport Folk Festival in black jeans, black boots, and a black leather jacket, carrying a Fender Stratocaster in place of his familiar acoustic guitar. The crowd was INFURIATED. They thought he was betraying the American folk scene. Dylan didn't care, played his set and continued making his unmatched music HIS way from that day forward, often switching between electric and acoustic. No one else has come close to his enigmatic lyrics. like this from 1967, the original "All Along The Watchtower" which was famously covered by Jimi Hendrix and many others. @

Regarding the music of this song... apart from his honest and naturally narrative imperfect voice (which made him instantly believable as a folk singer, was when he was transitioning from accoustic american folk music to electric rock and roll casting a bridge between american rock and the british invasion....this was so historically significant.....it impacted everybody at that moment and this is why it is seen as the most important song in rock history

[@ALifeThatRocks]

Frequently listed by Rolling Stone as the top song ever. The organ is played by Al Cooper, a guitarist, who went on to discover and produce Lynyrd Skynyrd. At the time, Cooper didn’t know how to play organ but talked his way into the session recording of Like a Rolling Stone. He improvised and Dylan loved it. The only thing better than listening to Dylan’s music is to read his biography “Chronicles”. He is a penetrating observer into people and society and it’s hilarious. The audiobook has Sean Penn as narrator which is… perfect.

When I heard this song, I knew instantly he was a bonafide genius, breathtaking.

[@SeanDaRyan]

Anything off Blood on the Tracks is UNREAL! The whole Rolling Thunder Revue live versions...I think thats the very height of Live Popular Music

[@deanwimbridge9318]

They don’t get any bigger than Dylan wonderful musician inspiring vocals and the greatest song writer of all time 👏

[@chrisofnottingham]

It is interesting that "his delivery" is indeed so engaging despite him not really being a singer's singer at all.

[@TommiBrem]

"Positively 4th Street", "Maggie's Farm" and, please, "Talking Bear Mountain Picknick Massacre Blues".

[@karl_3885]

all of them among my favs as well :)

[@dlmullins9054]

He defined the sixties for so many souls. The greatest. Thanks!

This song made Al Kooper who wasn't even an organ player, at the time happened to be there,Dylan said can you play organ He said: Yeah,Sure! He's slightly behind the time, said he was trying to catch up came out perfect for the song! I'd Lie thru my teeth to be on a Dylan song!

[@mythicsin3083]

I’ve seen him 3 times. 1978, 1980 and 1988 with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Each was different and each was a transcendent experience....

[@Grendel53]

4 or 5 times. My sister says it's like going on a space ship. I agree.

Dylan was originally a folk singer. When he went electric his fans booed and booed but he just kept playing and by the end of the concert they were cheering.

[@zigguratofur7298]

thinking you speak of the '66 dylan goes electric tour, and his new buddies The Band helped him make the breakthrough, backing him. read somewhere they were not especially in awe of dylan and pushed him musically--long partnership, The Basement Tapes, other Lps, tours like '74 Before the Flood, which yielded great live album, 2 separate sets then come together for big finale. And by 74 the Band was huge too, so it was mega show of its era.

[@brettnheather]

Thanks for the reaction. Good ears. More Dylan please. His peers refer to as the The Oracle

[@jasondylansargent2195]

May not speak for everyone but all Bob Dylan's songs are amazing bless you Mr Zimmerman 👍🕶️

In the summer of '65, so many iconic songs were released that it was so hard to puck a favorite. HARD DAY'S NIGHT, I GOT YOU BABE, HANG ON SLOOPY, IT AIN'T ME BABE, DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC, DOWN IN THE BOONDOCKS, YOU'VE GOT YOUR TROUBLES, I CAN'T GET NO SATISFACTION, etc.,...I was 15 that summer and, of course, these songs to this day (I'm 70 now) take me back! LIKE A ROLLINGSTONE has that organ, harmonica, THAT guitar, &HIS voice! I'm glad for that period of music bc without it, I'd have forgotten so much of what went on in my teen years. It's a pleasure listening to your reactions. Want to do something fun? Watch Dylan doing a rap song b4 rap was called rap? MEDITERRANEAN HOMESICK BLUES...you might get a kick out of it! I downloaded that video because you never know...🙌

[@sjw5797]

"Subterranean Homesick Blues". For first rap song, it's a toss up between that one and "It's Alright, Ma, I'm Only Bleeding".

[@steve55sogood16]

There's no one, quite like Bobby!

[@jefffournier9986]

Has wrote so many great songs as many or more than anyone, many songs of his have been covered and given or sold to other artists. Tangle up in Blue and Hurricane.

Gotta Serve Somebody: Bob Dylan

[@mukomerobicheaux6883]

someone told me to pay attention to the rhymes in this song, it made all the difference, at least for me. Very fun how all the things he does, like ending every verse with a word that rhymes with "feel".

[@evelynne2846]

Dylan is the best of the folk genre.

[@axiomist4488]

In 2016 he won the Nobel Prize in Literature for his "introduction of poetic expressions into the great American song tradition". This is my favorite album of his. It's the most surrealistic. Listen to DESOLATION ROW in this album. Highway 61 (in the album's title) runs thru the Mississippi Delta, where the Blues originated. The intersection of Hiway 61 and Hiway 49 is where Robert Johnson (considered the father of the Blues) supposedly sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for his ability to play the guitar. You might want to try ROBERT JOHNSON. He died in 1936, at 26, some say stabbed by a jealous husband, others say he was poisoned and died on his hands and knees, howling like a dog ! The Stones did a great version, with electric guitars and a fantastic "slide" of Johnson's song LOVE IN VAIN. A great one you should listen to, also.
