Bob Dylan Review of Nobodys home part one extra credit

Bob Dylan is a "Rolling Stone."

The movie begins with Dylan speaking how he has been looking for a home that he had forgotten about. Then cuts to the song "Like a Rolling Stone" because like his song he has "No Direction Home." Music was a huge part of his life even at a young age. He began to play guitar at the age of ten and was widely inspired by a country song known as "Drifting far from shore." He says that the song made him feel, " As if he was born to the wrong parents or something." The area he lived in was very rural, people would do "odd things." It seemed like the most fun he would have was listening to the radio, one of these men who enchanted him with a "voodoo-like voice" was Johnny Ray. Another was Muddy Waters, he mentions that it was never the singer who he would pay attention to but the music that the musician had produced it, in this situation an African American(Dylan).

One time for his school, he played the piano on stage in fornt of the class audience. According to one of his friends it looked like he was attacking the piano. So the principal had to close the curtain on him saying it was unsuitable. This already shows that he had established that he wanted to be different form the generation he had grown in. He even says, " Time obliterated the past."

As the movie progresses, we continue to see Dylan perform his music, and as he is leaving to get in his car after performing "Like a Rolling Stone," the English audience comments that his new music totally changed. One fan even mentioning that, "he is prostituting himself." Many people liked his freewheelin' album, but the next album had loss the rhythm of his guitar.

Bob Dylan then begins to talk of his adolescent ages and that he attended Minnesota University. However, he never even attended the classes. Also unlike other artists, "he didn't really have a past to write about at the time." Yet, he felt that he fit in with the "mad ones." The importance of music also take a turn in this part of his life when he traded in all his electric equipment to buy an acoustic guitar, without moments of attaining it he began to play it.

The next transformation for Bob Dylan was his name, his last name is not really Dylan. Some say that he borrowed his last name from Dylan Thomas, a poet. Others say he got his name to reduce racial tension towards himself due to anti semitism. But Bob Dylan said that he dosen't even know how the name really stuck. (Personally I just don't think he wants to share that with us). Another big influence to his music was Woody Guthrie, he said about Guthrie that, " You could listen to his songs and learn how to live." He even attempted to go to New York to meet Woody Guthrie.

The folk Dylan started coming around after his view of Joan Baez. He saw her on T.V and, "thought she needed a singing partner." By around this time the moving part of the nation was in Greenwich village, it was a bohemian atmosphere and was bombarded with art movements, and known to be the birth of great creativity. To encompass himself with this area he also began to play in "The Village" cafes. He caught the attention of many because he was playing Woody Guthrie songs.
