Releasead in 1963 by Bob Dylan, “Blowin’ in the Wind” was a bit of a protest song against war and it’s held onto that legacy today.
It has been covered by other artists including Dolly Parton, Glen Campbell Pete Seeger, and Peter Paul & Mary.
A lovely easy tune to learn and practice with, sticking to natural notes and a simple melody. Enjoy!
