Curiously, in late USSR (1970-1980) there was a Bob Dylan follower Boris Grebenschikov, who had been vaguely revolutionary in his songs, distributed unofficially - but then, under Gorbachev-Yeltsin-Putin, he became published, rich, still avant-gardist, but politically over-conformist dinosaur. When I hear this song, I think of "the Great BG", who used to mean so much and now is so little.
