Some of his songs, such as “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “The Times They Are A-Changin’”, became anthems of the anti-war and civil rights movements. His song “Like A Rolling Stone”, released in July of 1965, was named “The Greatest Song of All Time” by Rolling Stone magazine in 2004, placing #1 in a list of 500 titles. Dylan remains an influential and popular artist; his most recent album of new songs, 2009’s Together Through Life, reached #1 on the charts in the US, Britain, France and several other countries.

Bob Dylan’s strong influence over the past few years is becoming even more prominent amongst a growing group of younger emerging artists such as George Ellias, and Devendra Banhart.

Dylan’s early lyrics incorporated politics, social commentary, philosophy and literary influences, defying existing music conventions and appealing widely to the counterculture of the time. While expanding and personalizing musical styles, Dylan has shown steadfast devotion to traditions of American song, from and / to and , to Gaelic balladry, even , and .

    http://www.last.fm/music/Bob+Dylan/+images/74222526 "Израильский исллюстратор Нома Бар (Noma Bar) создает иллюстрации в собственном оригинальном минималистичном стиле. Будучи студентом Академии искусств Бецалель в Иерусалиме Нома Бар определил для себя, что дизайн - это минимум средств и максимум выражения. Руководствуясь этим тезисом, молодой иллюстратор поехал покорять Лондон. Там он начал создавать свои шедевральные плакаты для BBC, The Observer, The Economist, Wallpaper, IBM, Vodafone, Coca Cola и многих других. Сейчас Нома Бару 38 лет, и он уже выпустил две книги: сборник портретов известных людей "Guess Who" (Угадай кто) и сборник иллюстраций "Negative Space" (Отрицательное пространство)."
