Dylan’s Interviews

I was thinking about Dylan’s interviews during our discussion today and made a connection as to why he was being so difficult to his interviewers. One of the themes in his album Bringin it All Back Home is to not trust the “man” and down with structure and authority. But then he tells interviewers one thing one day and a completely different thing the next day. He is creating this mistrust of himself. I think he was doing this so that he could avoid being labeled as the ‘authority’ figure of Folk music and/or Rock music.
