Bringing It All Back Home · In the summer of 1964 Bob Dylan spent hours in Woodstock writing his lyrics, which grew ever more surreal. Then he met the Beatles, and together with producer Tom Wilson he sought a blend of rock and folk. The first session, on 13 January 1965 in New York, was still entirely acoustic, but the result was almost entirely rejected. In the end the record was released in April 1965 on Columbia, as Dylan's first album with electric instruments.
On the first side an electric rock 'n' roll band plays; the second side consists mainly of acoustic songs. Dylan left the protest music of his earlier records behind for more complex, surreal lyrics. The album caused controversy and divided the folk scene. Subterranean Homesick Blues became his first single on the American charts. It was also his first LP in the American top 10 and later that spring went to number one in Great Britain. Several magazines name it one of the best albums of all time.
