The Times They Are a-Changin' album by Bob Dylan, who has signed neatly on the front cover in black felt tip. In very fine condition. The record is included. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks and by a letter of provenance from Jeff Rosen, the president of the Bob Dylan Music Company, which reads: "I represent Bob Dylan and have done so for many years. In 2017 he signed a number of individual albums on a rare and limited basis, including the album photographed here. I can say for certain that it is Bob Dylan's signature. The chain of custody is directly from Bob Dylan to myself." A superior example of one of Dylan’s greatest albums, signed in a controlled environment, for his trusted business manager of 30-plus years.
Dylan wrote the song 'The Times They Are a-Changin'' in the fall of 1963, shortly after Martin Luther King Jr.'s March on Washington, wanting to create an anthem for social justice. As he said, folk music and the Civil Rights movement were natural allies, and he felt he could contribute to the movement by writing a powerful, 'hypnotic' anthem. The title track of his third studio album, the song was one of his many timeless pieces that earned Dylan a Nobel Prize in Literature, recognized 'for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.'
