I love the electric version of this song, probably because it ruffled so many feathers! People who were dyed-in-the-wool acoustic Dylan fans felt totally betrayed when this electric version came out, but those who were open to change embraced it, and I wonder if that was what he had intended - separating the wheat from the chaff, so to speak.

Whatever the case, Dylan will always be an icon, and I'll always love his music, even if sometimes I don't understand it.

Maybe they were really trying to make it go to 11.

I would.

Agree.  It was Bloomfield (electric lead guitar & Kooper (organ). You can see a video of this performance on the documentary: The Other Side of the Mirror: Live at the Newport Folk Festival: 1963-65.

The lead guitar sounds a lot like Mike Bloomfield.  Can anyone
corroborate?

TIA!

Is this Bloomfield or Robertson? The guitar work is amazing.

Legend has it that Pete Seeger tried to cut the power cables with an axe.

Ah, a seminal moment in his career. Haven't seen the movie, so it's interesting to hear what all the fuss was about.

Maggie, I could be wrong about this, but I just have this funny feeling Bob's not gonna be showing up for work today.  Can't say why, it's just this impression I have.

Was this the concert where he was boo'ed off the stage for going electric?  :-)
