Using several raw audio cuts, Dylan talks about a career that has spanned 50 years. Ending the audio is a cut not from Dylan, but from a certain Beatle sharing his thoughts on Dylan’s music.
Description of each cut (play the full audio below.)
Cut 1: Bob Dylan’s songwriting career has spanned nearly 50 years but even he’s surprised on how some of those early songs were written.
Cut 2: On leaving his small Minnesota town of Hibbing.
Cut 3: About the differences between him and his parents.
Cut 4: Early on in his career, Bob Dylan knew singing was his destiny.
Cut 5: Bob Dylan has been called a prophet and a voice of a generation- but on his 70th birthday today, Dylan disagrees.
