Piano

[edit]

In the text it says piano was by Paul Griffin but in the personnel list it says Frank Owens. Do we have a source ? This discrepancy has been there since the Personnel section appeared in 2016. -- Beardo (talk) 01:54, 17 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Bootleg Series Vol. 12: The Cutting Edge liner notes state that it was Paul Griffin. I went ahead and changed it. Sebs26 (talk) 05:15, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it was indeed Griffin. See Olof Bjorner's Still On The Road which although it doesn't please the eye, is a pretty reliable source for details like this. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 20:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure why this personnel section has never been sourced. I sourced it with Olof Björner's research. Interestingly, Björner writes that "The Cutting Edge booklet ... b) incorrectly states Paul Griffin (organ) and Frank Owens (piano) on 'Like A Rolling Stone'." He instead credits organ to Owens and piano to Dylan. Tkbrett (✉) 19:03, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wasn't the organist for "Like a Rolling Stone" Al Kooper? Abebenjoe (talk) 03:02, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Year

[edit]

Under Accolades appears, 500 Songs That Shaped Rock, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, 1995 . But the associated reference says that the list was compiled in 2004 , which was nine years later.98.149.97.245 (talk) 04:20, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
