Bob Dylan recorded FREEWHELIN' during 1962. The "Cold War" was heating up (in lack of a better term) between JFK and Nikita Khruchev.
The Soviet Union placed nuclear missiles in Cuba with the intention of targeting Florida and other parts of the United States.

THE FREEWHEELIN' BOB DYLAN (Columbia Records) was released in 1963.
