With today’s show, we begin the monumental task of compiling the career of Bob Dylan into a series of one-hour programs. Previous episodes often required more than one hour to compile the necessary information, but our Dylan coverage will certainly set a new precedent in this regard. We intend to look at all aspects of Dylan’s career, from its inception in the early ‘60s until his latest release, and I’d expect that we will need quite a few shows to cover his career adequately. Ten? Twenty? Time will tell.
This episodes focuses on the earliest portion of Dylan’s career, starting with early folk recordings of traditional songs, then following his quick progression to becoming a songwriter with a thoroughly unique voice (in both senses of the word). At the time when these recordings were made, virtually nobody knew who Bob Dylan was – his first album is said to have sold approximately 2500 copies upon its release. Nowadays, the entire world has become familiar with Bob’s songs. Here is how it all began;
