He went on to release the politically charged The Times They Are a-Changin' and the more lyrically abstract and introspective Another Side of Bob Dylan in 1964. Many of his songs adapted the tunes and phraseology of older folk songs.

The album features 'Blowin' in the Wind' and the thematically complex ' A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall'. įollowing his self-titled debut album in 1962, which comprised mainly traditional folk songs, Dylan made his breakthrough as a songwriter with the release of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan the following year. His lyrics during this period incorporated a range of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, defying pop music conventions and appealing to the burgeoning counterculture. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs such as ' Blowin' in the Wind' (1963) and ' The Times They Are a-Changin' ' (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning more than 60 years. Robert Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter.
