General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: This is my first attempt at a DYK review, second opinion needed. Article has been greatly expanded in recent days. Material is well-sourced, hook is interesting with source verified (the Trager book is available in Internet Archive), QPQ has been satisfied. Image of Bob Dylan is Public Domain from U.S. govt. I don't think ALT hooks are really needed, but if others do ... "Blind Boy Grunt" is a key ingredient, I think. OK. What did I miss? Jaireeodell (talk) 23:34, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
