Grateful Dead? Jimi Hendrix? Cream? Psychedelia's key players were mostly influenced by Blues at least, and I'm sure country and folk played a hand in it.

The best Dylan you "need to listen to" is done by The Byrds.

you have to know that The Band were pretty anti-Hippie
they went against the whole "don't trust anybody over 30" ideal by happily posting pics of their dads and uncles on the debut |

Blues certainly was a part of bands like cream and hendrix but still it was quite a bit different. Whether or not all those genres are part of the counter-culture and The Band, The Band is obviously a lot different from the counter-culture. As Howard said, The Band was somewhat of a rebellion against the scene at the time.
I highly suggest that you do not take the byrds word on Dylan songs. They had some alright covers but they're nothing compared to the original Dylan songs. |

Mr. Tambourine Man was okay - the 12-string riff is quite good and fun to play
don't think much of "My Back Pages" either, i actually think the Ramones did a better cover also "This Wheel's On Fire" isn't that good, nor "Like a Rolling Stone" |

In Bob Dylan's wildest dreams he still doesn't come close to looking as badass as this
I see no competition. One is still respected based on reputation, one is still respected based on his never ending ability to rock the **** out. |
