My Days With Dylan

On Sunday December 5, the event “Bob Dylan and the Band: What Kind of Love is This?” sponsored by the Forward, celebrates one of rock and roll’s most powerful collaborations. A symposium at the 14th St Y — where an exhibition of Dylan memorabilia and photographs by William G. Scheele (a road manager for The Band and Bob Dylan from 1969 to 1976) is on display — will be followed by a concert at Le Poisson Rouge. Greil Marcus, one of the panelists at the symposium and a preeminent Bob Dylan writer, spoke to the Forward about his time with Dylan.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.

If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
