@paintballing489 - Dylan was booed because it was the first time he had played any song electric, in essence creating the genre of "Folk Rock" but because of the Folk scene at the time, the majority of the people at the festival weren't impressed with this version and looked down upon it, believing Dylan to be "selling out" and going "mainstream"... fucking hipsters. One of the first intellectual rock performances of the '60s and they boo him for that. Not cool, dudes.
@MrDylan961 è certamente una canzone di impronta rock, è chiaro che non stiamo ascoltando gli who o i rolling stones, è un rock alla dylan maniera;
tra l'altro ci troviamo nel 1965 ma gli elementi del rock ci sono tutti: la chitarra elettrica con una leggera distorsione, la batteria, il basso e l'organo hammond.
Se ascolti le altre canzoni interpretate da Bob in questo festival, ti accorgi che gli strumenti presenti sono chitarra e voce (e armonica).
@cameltooth1 They booed because the couldnt hear dylan over bloomfield on maggies farm. the booed him on this because he went electric and they wanted him to stay as an acoustic folk musician

To the OP, if the video gets pulled, challenge it. I had several Hendrix videos pulled, the companies don't respond to the challenges, which means you automatically get your video reposted after two weeks.
Wow do I appriciate this stuff, saw Dylan last week and me and my wife really enjoyed... Can I get Newport 65' show on cd, this stuff is awesome, and Mike Bloomfield holy shit he's a beast.
@wtw88 yeah but im not Dylan man, neither you us, and i didn't disrespect your beatles, i just say theres enough of them already, leave Him some room man
Great to hear Mr. Dylan actually make an effort to carry a tune. Apparently the audience didn't realize that this song would, in the future, be acknowledged as the greatest song in rock-and-roll history.
@axelhendersonn If one is to remain wise, and know real happiness, one must accept change. The only difference between a rut and a grave is their dimensions.
The old folk was okay and still is , but Bob turned the world towards more full musical expression, that can only be seen as a good thing.
@mrryno72 Weren't expecting "LikeaRollingStone" in any case because they'd never heard it b4,hadn't been released yet. Thought they'd see cute lil' Bobby come play his classics like "Blowin' in the Wind" & "Chimes of Freedom",as he did the prv. 2yrs.,in standard folk format. Instead he comes out w/ electric gtr.,leather jacket,on dope,like he's Marlon Brando or James Dean.(Playing an electric guitar @ NewportFolkFst in 65' was a direct insult to the whole scene,& he knew they'd boo)
@JeffOxBig It had been released. This was the 25th, it was released on the 20th, and DJs had an advance copy edited into two parts on the 15th. According to Al Kooper, it was all over the radio during the festival and the reaction was mixed, half the audience loved it, half hated it.
@JeffOxBig It wasn't an insult; it was a challenge to the conventional artist and audience and an invitation to exhilaration to those who were willing to take the trip.
they are definitely booing because he went electric. Dylan was the king of folk music. Highway 61 revisited basically destroyed folk. Imagine expecting "the lonesome death of hattie carol" and getting "tombstone blues". However, that album is incredible, every single cut. wish I was alive to experience its release.
@mrryno72 No, I don't think they were surprised by the fact that he played electric. They just wanted to show their contempt for it - if that is why they booed.
@ryanlucas10 There are different reasons flying around. Some people think that they were booing because the sound quality was low, others thought they were booing because Dylan went electric, which was sort of the antithesis of folk in that time.
@ryanlucas10 --he was all acoustic for the longest time. and they gloved him..but, here, this is when he changed to electric instruments...they booed, and walked out.
@ryanlucas10 Newport Folk Festival,Newport. This is a very famous moment..They are upset because the folk artists used accoustical only....He was booed off and came back and asked for a harmonica from the crowd,
I just saw him a few weeks ago and my take on Dylan??? He is Bob Dylan!!! He has earned the right to do whatever he pleases....
@ryanlucas10 Because at the time an electric guitar was a sign of "Rock n Roll" and the "shallow songs rockers played". Folk music was about sending a poiniant message. Dylan playing an electric guitar for the first time at a Folk Festival was seen as a slap in the face and selling out which is farthest from what is expected of Dylan a "Folkie"
This is one of Dylans greatest moments, he took a great chance and in doing which united Rock and Folk in one show.
@ryanlucas10 no, after all it was probably because of the sound, was too loud, Al Kooper in no direction home said that the volume was too loud, moreover dylan played for only 15 minutes
Some say the audience were booing because there was something wrong with the sound system and the audience couldnt hear dylan.

Tomt3344 4 months ago
The reason they were booing was because Dylan was going electric,
which was considered heresy to folk purists. It wasn't because of the
nature of the song, which really wasn't rock. If he had done it acoustic
there would not have been any boos. Anyway the almighty hypnotic
Hammond B-3 began to work its magic & the folkies came to realize
it's a big beautiful world with room for everybody.
