631 Bob Dylan (1941- ) “Masters of War” 1963

Dylan “begged and borrowed from the established ballad styles of the past…But the stories he told in his songs had nothing to do with unrequited Appalachian love affairs or idealized whorehouses in New Orleans…They went right to the heart of his decade’s most recurring preoccupation: that in a time of irreversible technological progress, moral civilization has pathetically faltered” (Younger Than That Now: The Collected Interviews with Bob Dylan, 2004). The album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan is listed on the National Recording Registry of the Library of Congress.
