Bob Dylan: No Direction Home

[whiskeytown]

I have gone on record, I think on OOT as saying that Bob Dylan's Vol 4, the Bootleg Series is one of the greatest records in the world.

Anyone can decide to become a rock star and it's cool - but until the documentary that just came out, I don't think anyone understood quite where Dylan came from before he became the rock and roller - both sides are cool - his early folk acoustic and his later stuff...

but to be booed off a stage by your hardcore fans and to be called Judas for plugging in an electric guitar -

I mean come on, the ultimate [censored] rock and roll moment.

Are you talking about Newport?

Meh. It probably seemed important then.
