"Don't Think Twice, It's All Right," guitar intro

New York, NY (Columbia Studio A)November 14, 1962

The flubbed notes in Dylan's fingerpicking here poignantly suggest a fallible interiority that balances the song's lyrical sharp edges. NB: Pace Clinton Heylin, this is absolutely Dylan playing, and not Bruce Langhorne. See the discussion in the book, p. 346n28, as well as Eyolf Østrem's superb article here.
