On his way back from Europe, one of rock’s greatest icons Bob Dylan was emotionally drained—disillusioned to the point of nearly quitting music altogether. When Dylan got back home, he started pouring those raw emotions onto paper, not thinking about a song, just scribbling his frustrations across 10, maybe 20 pages. He stashed it away, thinking it was just scattered ramblings. But those words didn’t stay hidden for long. They took shape, emerging as an unfiltered, six-minute epic: Like a Rolling Stone. A song too explosive to fit the industry’s clean-cut molds. Radio stations and record execs were baffled, but then… something completely unexpected happened. The artist had created more than just a song…He had created a cultural earthquake! This song made Bob Dylan an unlikely inspiration for Jimi Hendrix, who before hearing it considered himself a guitarist but not a singer. Dylan proved you didn't need a conventional voice to sing rock and roll. later the original lyrics sold for 2 million... The story is next, on Professor of Rock.

After his 22nd birthday, Bob Dylan’s life was about to change forever. His second album, The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan, had just hit the record shelves, and with it, Dylan went from the smoky folk clubs of Greenwich Village to the national spotlight. This wasn’t just another folk record—this was a turning point. Packed with raw, politically charged lyrics and a bold new edge, the album introduced a fresh, rock-infused take on folk music. And as the world took notice, success kept building. His next album hit big, he became a voice in the civil rights movement, and soon a tour in England turned him into a star across the Atlantic.

But even with the world at his feet, Dylan felt restless. Fame wasn’t what he’d imagined, and his frustration bubbled over in unexpected ways. He clashed with Ed Sullivan, turning down a chance to play on the biggest talk show in the US. He was slammed for mouthing off onstage, with critics and fans accusing him of being high. The folk and political circles that once felt like home now left him feeling like an outsider. And though he’d already written a string of iconic songs—Blowin’ in the Wind, The Times They Are a-Changin’, and Subterranean Homesick Blues—he was starting to question if he even wanted to keep climbing the ladder he’d been placed on.

By the spring of 1965, Dylan was at a breaking point. Wrapping up a grueling tour of England—captured in D.A. Pennebaker’s raw documentary Don't Look Back—he was feeling exhausted and disillusioned. During a stop in London, he turned to his trailblazing manager, Albert Grossman, and announced he was ready to quit… His latest album, Bringing It All Back Home, came out in February, and instead of praise, it stirred up a backlash. Fans and critics were unsettled by the electric guitars and backing band, a sharp break from his
