I think you’re talking about Peter Yarrow from “Peter, Paul, and Mary.” I could be mistaken though.

When I watch this, I start to cry myself. That electric mayhem was a disaterous moment that made me really disappointed. I love Bobby’s music: electric or not. It’s not how he plays it, he’s a poet. Obviously everyone there that night didn’t see that.

Peter Yarrow was the man who asked him to come back out on stage (Dylan asked, “What are you doing to me, man?”). He had a short set because the band had very little time to practice the songs, so this was all that they could master the night before. He did not want to play any acoustic set. This song was carefully chosen, when he was convinced to come back on stage, as a statement that he was moving on from folk… that he was a new man, and that his time as a folk singer was over.

This is a great moment in rock and roll history. It proves that the “going electric” bit was not for lack of talent or conviction in his old songs but part of the normal drive by artists to explore new territory. With this song, Dylan shows that he knew exactly what was going on and that he was in control, while also showing that he had respect for his audiences and the tradition from which he had emerged. Sheer brilliance. Thanks for the video.
