(24,068 posts)someone had asked Barack Obama what his favourite Dylan song was and he replied, "Maggie's Farm."
I also remember that President Obama honored Bob Dylan with the Medal of Freedom.
10 Turtle Day
(692 posts)Since it was a folk festival, the festival’s organizers were angry that Dylan insisted on playing an electric guitar during his set. They wanted the sound turned down or off. Pete Seger thought about taking a sledgehammer to the sound board to make it stop, but was dissuaded by his wife Yoshi and orders from Dylan’s people that the sound not be altered. Joan Baez was angry with him too, or so the movie portrays it. I don’t have any real behind the scenes knowledge.
Great song, thank you for posting it!
