"Mr. Tambourine Man"'s evolution

The following is clearly mangled, but since I'm not sure what the intended meaning is, I hesitate to fix it:

Written sometime in February of 1964, "Mr. Tambourine Man" was originally recorded for Another Side of Bob Dylan; a rough performance with several mistakes, that recording was rejected, but a polished has often been attributed to Dylan's early use of LSD, but eyewitness accounts of both the song's composition and Dylan's first use of LSD suggests that "Mr. Tambourine Man" was actually written weeks before.

I changed that to :

" Written sometime in February of 1964, "Mr. Tambourine Man" was originally recorded for Another Side of Bob Dylan; a rough performance with several mistakes, the recording was rejected, but a polished version has often been attributed to Dylan's early use of LSD, although eyewitness accounts of both the song's composition and of Dylan's first use of LSD suggest that "Mr. Tambourine Man" was actually written weeks before."

The meaning is the same, but I think grammar has been fixed. Also, I should bring into question the accuracy of the source of which that information was gathered, because I had never previously heard of LSD use by Dylan. Ruckyou 03:02, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

To meet the more rigorous criteria of the revised B class, this article needs improved sourcing to help readers verify the accuracy of information. In its current incarnation, it offers no references/sources whatsoever. Additional improvements may also be necessary. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Assessment for additional information on B class in album articles. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 21:38, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Robbie Robertson - American bar band?

In the section Recording sessions there is a mention that John P. Hammond recruited members (Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, and Garth Hudson)of "an American bar band" - isn't the term American misleading? Weren't they (the Hawks) a Canadian bar band if anything?

Retrieved from the 1964 section of Robbie Robertson's biography page[1]: Although The Hawks never changed their name during this period, the label felt the group should establish their own reputation and distance themselves from being known as “Ronnie Hawkins backup band”, thus dub them The Canadian Squires

Back cover

It would be nice to say something about the back cover. For example, filmmaker Barbara Rubin is shown massaging Dylan's scalp in one of the photos. (She deserves to be mentioned more often in Wikipedia; she was absolutely a notable person.) Also, this draft article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Barbara_Rubin) needs a picture of her, but I can't find a free one; maybe a snapshot of that part of the album cover would be considered public domain?

Okay, I went ahead and mentioned Rubin in the cover art section. Rosekelleher (talk) 02:49, 13 October 2014 (UTC)
