Bob Dylan's Mr Tambourine Man (1965)

"Mr. Tambourine Man" featured on Bob Dylan's 1965 album Bringing It All Back Home. Rock band The Byrds also recorded a version of "Mr. Tambourine Man" that was their first single and title of their first album. As for Dylan's version, in a 2005 reader's poll reported in Mojo, "Mr. Tambourine Man" was listed as the #4 all time Bob Dylan song.

The song has become famous in particular for its surrealistic imagery that has evoked speculation about its meaning and theme. It said that major influence on the song is the poetry of 19th century French poet Arthur Rimbaud and Federico Fellini's movie La Strada.
