Portrait of Dylan As Young Man

I've seen parts of this before but didn't know about full show: a half-hour special on Canadian TV in 1964 that's all Dylan, live, at times in weirdo studio settings.  He's playing mainly early classics, from "Hattie Carroll" to "Times They Are A-Changin," but ends with the much lesser known "Restless Farewell," which really pointed to his future writings--and was most memorably sung to and for "Mr. Frank" Sinatra in a much later TV tribute (you can find it on YouTube).   Not long after this TV show, he went on his trip to London captured in Don't Look Back.
