Is Bob Dylan a folk singer?

Bob Dylan has played many different styles of music. Early in his career he had, what some people would call the Folk time of his career. This is the time when his music sounded most like Folk music. But even then, there was something different about his music.

Bob Dylan doesn't play Folk, Rock, Country, Pop, Jazz, Gospel, or anything like that. He plays his own kind of music. This kind of music has helped shape all other genres of music.

Bob Dylan will play what he wants to play. He doesn't follow any specific rules. This is why any experienced Dylan fan can tell you the year a song was released, just by hearing Mr. Dylan's voice, even if they have never heard the song before.

Most people who know music will tell you, the two most influential artists/bands ever are The Beatles and Bob Dylan. If you think about it, Bob Dylan influenced The Beatles very much. Without Bob Dylan, The Beatles would have never been as popular as they were.

Bob Dylan doesn't play Folk music; he plays his own style of music. This is why he is, in my opinion, the best thing that happened to music since music itself was created.
