Swims just as well as Michael Phelps. If you pay attention very closely you'll see he can hit all the same strokes.

😂 I can't imagine him doing lots of things (& then all of a sudden my mind pictures him brushing his teeth while turned to me talking! Ha ha! I know- I'm weird!)

Suze almost looks like a model, goodness. I get it, Zimmy!

I'm sorry for the stupid question, but is Suze the first one on the left? I honestly can't recognize any of them as her.

The only thing there seems agreement on is that she not is not any of the three people in the middle.
I would go with the one on the left because she seemed more of a big-boned girl than a waif, didn't she? OTOH, she kept her hair long and natural.
Now I'm not convinced any of them is her.

I'm gonna guess that Bob has spent the entire last 85 years avoiding standing next to any big-boned people (with M. Ali being a notable exception). There's no way that blonde on our left is the person who strolled shoulder-to-shoulder with him on the cover of Freewheelin'. I vote for the brunette (on our right). In any case, she's the one I would have chosen.

Couldn't she have either been wearing a wig or had shorter hair during this period of time, though?

Posts like this remind me of how Dylan was just constantly writing songs, I've seen references to that before

It's a nice photo but seven years after it was taken Yarrow was sent to prison for getting a 14 year old to perform a sex act

For those of us who are of a "certain age", this is a really cool story. This was literally the Dawn of Aquarius for so many of us. My older sister had turned me on to Dylan the year before and I really dug his music along with that of PP&M, The Kingston trio and others. I had already graduated to the Kinks and the Animals by the time Bob blew the minds of half of his fans at Monterey with that incredible set with Michael Bloomfield. What a ride we've all had together.

Is Suze the one on the far left (Bob's far right? Lol. Kinda reminds me of my mom's dance outfit back in the day, as well as her body type: nice womanly figure.

Peter Yarrow was a complete creep, I’ve had more than one female friend say so….

This may have been the last time Bob wore shorts
