When Bob Dylan was nineteen years old, he would visit his idol Woody Guthrie at the Greystone Park Psychiatric Hospital. Woody was suffering from Huntington's disease and it was the near the end of his storied life.
Of Woody Guthrie's body of work, Bob Dylan said, "The songs themselves were really beyond category. They had the infinite sweep of humanity in them."
