June 6 Dylan and Joan Baez perform at the anti-nuclear movement event Peace Sunday Rally. Summer Dylan produces at least four songs for Clydie King at Gold Star Studios in Los Angeles. A couple of years later he tells Mikael Gilmore in an interview that "I've also got a record with just me and Clydie King singing together and it's great, but it doesn't fall into any category that the record company knows how to deal with".
