Singer-songwriter Bob Dylan has been a major influence in music and culture for more than five decades and has sold more than 100 million records, making him one of the best-selling recording artists of all time and also considered to be the most bootlegged artist in rock history which are the unreleased performances by Dylan, that have been circulated throughout the public without undergoing an official, sanctioned release.
