"but a musical genius"
No way. A lyrical genius? Yes. Read your history of rock and roll. When Dylan came out with electric guitar at the Newport Folk Festival, that changed music.

And I see that the audience wasn't pleased until Dylan came back with an accoustic.
The music had already changed by 1965. Folk or folk/rock may have changed with the electric guitar but it did not change all music.
