History

Bob Dylan changed what a popular song was allowed to be about. He arrived in New York at the start of the 1960s out of the folk revival, singing with an acoustic guitar and a harmonica rack, and within a few years he had pulled the protest song, the surrealist image and the long unspooling narrative into the same three minutes. Blowin' in the Wind made him the voice the movement wanted; going electric in 1965 made him the voice it argued with. Highway 61 Revisited and the records around it replaced folk plainness with a wired, bluesy band sound and language that nobody had put on a pop record before, and Like a Rolling Stone stretched the single past six minutes without losing the radio. He has kept moving since: country, gospel, a long late run of weathered songwriting, and a touring habit that never really stopped. He entered the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988 and won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016.
