My reply was to Bob's post, not yours.

I agree that Dylan helped to escort in the modern recording company use of the aongwriter as the performer again.

I use the term, "agsin" simply because the history of recording is rife with the same, referencing great songwriter/performers such as Louis Jordan's successes, there are, of course, many others.

The recording industry of the 50's - 60's era had indeed lost sight of this aspect.

However, my point was not anything at all to do with that particular subject, since this thread is about the use of session musicians in the creation or production of recorded works.

And Dylan's works you cite did indeed include backing musicians of this type, and that definitely had a lot to do with the success of the projects.
