[PAR] [TLE] Electric Dylan controversy [SEP] By 1965, Bob Dylan had achieved the status of leading songwriter of the American folk music revival.  The response to his albums "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" and "The Times They Are a-Changin'" led to him being labelled as the "spokesman of a generation" by the media.  In March 1965, Dylan released his fifth album, "Bringing It All Back Home".  Side One featured Dylan backed by an electric band.  Side Two featured Dylan accompanying himself on acoustic guitar.  On July 20, 1965, Dylan released his single "Like a Rolling Stone", featuring a rock sound.  On July 25, 1965, Dylan performed his first electric concert at the Newport Folk Festival, joined by guitarist Mike Bloomfield and Barry Goldberg of the Electric Flag.  Some sections of the audience booed Dylan's performance.  Leading members of the folk movement, including Irwin Silber and Ewan MacColl, criticized Dylan for moving away from political songwriting and for performing with an electric band. [PAR] [TLE] Like a Rolling Stone [SEP] "Like a Rolling Stone" is a 1965 song by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan.  Its confrontational lyrics originated in an extended piece of verse Dylan wrote in June 1965, when he returned exhausted from a grueling tour of England.  Dylan distilled this draft into four verses and a chorus.  "Like a Rolling Stone" was recorded a few weeks later as part of the sessions for the forthcoming album "Highway 61 Revisited".
