Flashback Friday – Bob Dylan Playing at the Newport Folk Festival 50 Years Ago
We (Rhode Islanders) often forget how special where we live really is. We have world renowned beaches, pretty ideal weather (if you like 4 full seasons), and views that are meant for postcards. It is also easy to forget the history Rhode Island has. We have been around since the inception of America, and with that comes a lot of great memories. Here is a flashback to 1964 when the great Bob Dylan graced the stages at the annual Newport Folk Festival.

PS- Mr. Tambourine Man is my favorite Bob Dylan song.
