Chris's Vault: The Electric Guitar Heard 'Round the World

Bob Dylan at Newport Folk Festival, 1965

Today on Chris's Vault, from the Newport Folk Festival in 1965, we hear Bob Dylan's scandalous performance of a song with electric guitar "Maggie's Farm". His audience wasn't prepared for Bob to be all rock'n'roll and it hurt their ears and even more so, their folking hearts.
