  • Bob Dylan fooled the world for decades claiming to have written many of the melodies to his hit songs when in fact most of the melodies were from preexisting songs that he did not write, including Blowin In The Wind.
    In a last nail in the coffin scenario James Damiano's movie "Eleven Years" draws the straw that breaks the camel's back, rivets Bob Dylan to his secret past of plagiarism and rewrites musical history"......Virtue Films
    No artist can lay claim to the controversy that has surrounded the career of songwriter James Damiano. Thirty three years ago James Damiano began an odyssey that led him into a legal maelstrom with Bob Dylan that, to this day, fascinates the greatest of intellectual minds.
    Since auditioning for the legendary CBS Record producer John Hammond, Sr., who influenced the careers of music industry icons Charlie Christian, Billy Holiday, Bob Dylan, Pete Seger, Bruce Springsteen and Stevie Ray Vaughan , James has engaged in a half a billion dollar copyright infringement law suit with Bob Dylan.
    As the curtain rises on the stage of deceit we learn that CBS / Sony international recording artist, Bob Dylan not only used songs and lyrics written by James Damiano but also solicited Mr. Damiano's materials for a period of over ten years and eleven months.
    Bob Dylan's name is credited to the songs. One of those songs is nominated for a Grammy as the best rock song of the year. Ironically the title of that song is Dignity.

    His "plagerism" changed my life and the world at large, but your little hit piece didn't leave a scratch. Scant Virtue at Films 1.

    The true way of musical growth is for it to be used re-used and built upon. In its normal environment, music evolves. Bob evolved the music. If you listen to those early hits you describe, and then listen to the predecessor songs, you will realize that he used existing pieces, but he also vastly improved them. Sometimes it was the words, sometimes he would add a contrasting section. It was genius. Also note that I said in a "normal environment". The idea of copyrighting songs and suing people who used pre-existing melodies is an invention of the last 200 years. It strangles the natural development of music. I also like copyrights. I like it when artists get paid for their work. But the real test is, listen to the originals, and then listen to Bob's version. Did he improve it? Most people give a resounding "YES!"

    Bob Dylan is a folk historian, music lineage holder and a national treasure. If you read his astounding book Chronicles, he openly admits borrowing and carrying on the great melodies of the past. He shows gratitude, devotion and respect for all his musical heroes. No one deserves his place as a poetic musical national treasure more than he.

    Well, if true, you've gotta admit he sure knew how to spot and make a good song when others couldn't. Everything comes from something,. It's how you put your own spin on.

    Who cares about what anyone else says. Bob is a Genius. It was him that opened our eyes and ears to everything. That he didn't invent music and the English language is but a mere oversight.

    Its hard to take what you say without believing its out of pure hate. u have a full site and yt channel dedicaed to making him look like a fraud and using words like fool. Bob dylan used alot of old melodies because he believed they were good, and to go into each and every snog is impossible when you live in the 60s and to mention that he stole words when he was 16 is a bit crazy aswell because, everyone who finds their art always takes inspiration and sometimes even more than that to keep his work flow inspired, and to set his feet off. Even if he did steal the music, he made it much better, just like how jimi hendrix made all along the watchtower his song instead of bobs because he improved it.

    There is nothing new under the sun. I think we can forgive Bob for what he did when he was sixteen. Woody Guthrie stole melodies. David Bowie admitted he borrowed heavily. He said he was "a tasteful thief." Ha ha. I think this sort of thing goes on a whole lot in music and is somewhat unavoidable.
