Dylan was never a part of the anti-war movement although he did write a few anti-war songs. The albums considered his best don’t have any anti-war songs on them. It is amazing how associated with that he is, when he never showed up at protests and by this point the protest songs he did are so overwhelmed by other types of songs as to be a tiny percentage of his catalog.
That’s a good analysis. Guess I was caught up in how his songs were used by the Left. Near as I can tell, at least now, he has no political philosophy. Apparently, he’s just a loner who likes to write and sing (or whatever that sound is).
