Today, May 24, 2011 is Bob Dylan’s 70th birthday. He has given us 50 years of wonderful poetry set to great tunes, many traditional, that reflect our times and our struggles. If you weren’t there for the first part of that 50 years, you can get a glimpse into his earlier performing life on DemocracyNow.org.
This daily news show is an offshoot of WBAI, the New York Pacifica Radio station. New York was where Dylan and many others came to live and work in the early to late 1960’s. You will find beautiful photos, music, early interviews on WBAI from 1962. Also interviews with Joan Baez, Pete Seeger and more. Check it out.
