1962: Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the wind"

Friday, July 9, 2021 1:25

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Bob Dylan recorded “Blowin’ in the wind” in July ’62:

“Dylan’s recording of “Blowin’ In The Wind” would first be released nearly a full year later, on his breakthrough album, The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan. This was not the version of the song that most people would first hear, however. That honor went to the cover version by Peter, Paul and Mary—a version that not only became a smash hit on the pop charts, but also transformed what Dylan would later call “just another song” into the unofficial anthem of the civil rights movement.”

Dylan was a great songwriter but his recordings are OK. I am not one of those who pops a Dylan CD and enjoys the whole thing.

At the same time, no one does “Mr Tambourine Man” or “Like a rolling stone” like Dylan. I guess that “Positively 4th street” is pretty good too.

It is still a great song 50-plus years later specially when Peter, Paul & Mary sing it. It is the best version of the song but Joan Baez is a close second.
