Description:
1965 was a pivotal year in Bob Dylan's career. In the earlypart of the year he released 'Bringing It All Back Home', the first albumthat saw him move distinctly away from his folk music origins. In thesummer he followed it with 'Highway 61 Revisited', an out and out rock `n'roll album, and the single 'Like A Rolling Stone' hit No.2 on the UScharts. His appearance at that year's Newport Folk Festival saw him use anelectric guitar on stage, a hugely controversial move at the time that sawhim booed by much of the audience. Against this background, Dylan went intothe studios of TV station KQED in San Francisco for a broadcast pressconference hosted by Ralph J. Gleason, his only one from this era ever tobe filmed.
Customer Reviews Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Fun.
What you get here is an hour of Bob Dylan answering questions. Is it worth ten bucks? Oh, you betcha.
I don't think a single Dylan documentary exists that doesn't pull footage from this particular press conference. During this period, he was young, feisty, enigmatic, charming, cocky and brilliant.

Rating: - dylan speaks is AWESOME!
IF you are a Bob Dylan fan, then this is a must see!!!I have read MANY of his books so I was aware of several topics that were addressed. But, if you would like to see Bob as a vulnerable young star in all his glory, you will truely enjoy this candid interview - his only public address - He is only 21 yrs old here and spectacular.It may not be for a casual fan; this if for a true "die hard"!Enjoy!
Rating: - A Great Time Capsule of Both the Era and Bob
It's impossible to watch this gorgeous print and not be charmed by Dylan's humor and (obvious?) nervousness at having to perform in front of a crowd that ranges from the weirdly obsessive to the completely clueless.While Dylan the singer has been documented on tape and film more than any other artist in rock history, this very unusual public appearance shows a side of Dylan that has rarely been seen over the 45 years of his fame.Sure he blows a good bit of smoke, and yet between the quips he takes the ...
