Dylan goes electric—a classic shot from a 1965 Bringing It All Back Home session

Original vintage glossy 7 x 9 silver gelatin photograph of Bob Dylan singing and playing electric guitar during a Bringing It All Back Home recording session in New York City in January 1965, taken by photographer Don Hunstein. Reverse is stamped: "16 Magazine, 745 Fifth Avenue, New York 22, N.Y." In fine condition.

In 1965, Bob Dylan famously 'went electric,' marking a bold departure from his acoustic folk roots and sparking controversy among his fans and the folk music community. His album Bringing It All Back Home was a groundbreaking fusion of electric rock and poetic lyrics, with Side A featuring electrified tracks like "Subterranean Homesick Blues" and Side B showcasing his traditional acoustic style. This pivotal moment in Dylan's career cemented his status as a transformative artist, redefining the boundaries of contemporary music and storytelling.
