Dylan being Dylan then. Probably a little high here. I think he was most candid while being interviewed by The famous Stuffs Terrell when I think was just 22..23. Studdes. had a calming effect. Also, he had him play a few of his songs, which I think a couple are my favorite versions..
His questioning is the only thing that gives the interview substance and keeps it going, Dylan is quite obtuse and stand-offish. Hentoff should be given credit for getting a 1 hour+ interview out of him.
