I've always hated that designation.
1:41:06
And it was very much...
1:41:10
in the spirit of the time.
1:41:12
Pete and the crowd
around Broadside magazine...

1:41:15
had fallen head over heels in love with him.
1:41:18
Today, Medgar Evers was buried
from the bullet he caught

1:41:26
They lowered him down as a king
1:41:32
But when the shadowy sun sets on the one
1:41:37
That fired the gun
1:41:39
He'll see by his grave
1:41:42
On the stone that remains
1:41:44
Carved next to his name
1:41:47
His epitaph plain
1:41:49
Only a pawn in their game
1:41:56
There was Woody Guthrie,
transition to Pete Seeger...

1:41:59
who carried on Woody's tradition.
1:42:01
Now who was to carry on from Pete Seeger?
1:42:05
And in that spot really, came Bob Dylan.
1:42:08
So we began to recognize that Bobby...
1:42:11
would be the continuation in that tradition.
1:42:14
I wrote this song. It tells a story...
1:42:20
if you like stories.
1:42:38
- Maybe it doesn't do anything.
- Maybe it doesn't tell a story.

1:42:43
It was a very, very exciting... I felt...
1:42:47
it was like, Bob was my pal.
1:42:48
We were involved in the same thing. And
I knew he was gonna be a massive star...

1:42:52
and I liked that.
