In 1974 he and The Band went on tour, releasing his first #1 album, "Planet Waves". It was followed a year later by another first-place album, "Blood on the Tracks".

1970

Although raised Jewish (being of fully Jewish heritage), he converted to a born-again version of Christianity in the late 1970s.

1964

February 1964: Dylan and three friends drove south from New York to see some of the US heartland. He insisted they stop unannounced to see poet Carl Sandburg in North Carolina.
