Suze Rotolo and Bob Dylan

The girl who inspired the song “Don’t Think Twice (It’s Alright)” died on Friday. (That’s her with Dylan on the cover of The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan.)

From Dylan’s Chronicles:

“Right from the start I couldn’t take my eyes off her.  She was the most erotic thing I’d ever seen.  She was fair skinned and golden haired, full-blooded Italian.  The air was suddenly filled with banana leaves.  We started talking and my head started to spin.  Cupid’s arrow had whistled past my ears before, but this time it hit me in the heart and the weight of it dragged me overboard.
