Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released during his legendary period of seclusion following a 1966 motorcycle accident, this initial compilation bridges Bob Dylan's acoustic protest era with his explosive transition into electric rock and roll. Sequencing era-defining anthems like 'Blowin' in the Wind' alongside the surrealist, electric sneer of 'Like a Rolling Stone', it captures an artist actively reshaping the lyrical parameters of popular music. The album famously features Milton Glaser's iconic psychedelic poster art in its original packaging.
