Bob Dylan Sounds The “Wind” Of Change (Again)

Sometimes you need to hear the hoary, obvious classics. Bob Dylan knows this as well as anyone, which is why his show last night, at the University of Minnesota (from which he dropped out after a year before heading to New York to make it on the folk circuit), climaxed with “Blowin’ in the Wind,” which Dylan played after noting that “It looks like things are going to change now.” According to veteran Minneapolis critic Jon Bream, “After Dylan and his band took their bows and the houselights went on at Northrop, concert-goers checked their cell phones and started screaming about the results of the presidential election. They headed outside of Northrop and began singing and dancing on the University of Minnesota campus.” Sounds familiar, no? [Star Tribune]
