Though he is well-known for revolutionizing perceptions of the limits of popular music в 1965 with the six-minute сингл "Like a Rolling Stone," a number of his earlier песни, такие как "Blowin' in the Wind" и "The Times They Are a-Changin'" became anthems for the US civil rights and anti-war движения.
