For Track 5 we find out more about The Beatles and Bob Dylan.

The musician and writer Sid Griffin explains all about when The Beatles first met Dylan, and how their careers and recording techniques had changed dramatically by 1967. Plus Sid tells us what he thinks Bob Dylan might feel about being on the album cover.

Then, in a 2004 edition of 'Soul Music', Robbie Robertson, Al Kooper and Greil Marcus are just some of the people to reflect on 'Like A Rolling Stone', the Bob Dylan song that challenged and changed lives.

Then we hear from Dion DiMucci, the singer of huge hits like 'The Wanderer' and 'Runaround Sue'. He tells us about shopping with The Beatles, and what it means to be one of only five members of the Sgt. Pepper's survivors club. Show less
