 The connection developed in May 1966 , when Harrison , Lennon and Paul McCartney visited Dylan in his London hotel , midway through his controversial world tour with backing band the Hawks . According to musicologist Ian MacDonald , Dylan 's relationship with Lennon was a testy , competitive one at times , and Dylan was " cooler " towards McCartney , whose best @-@ known songs he regarded as " sell @-@ outs to soft pop " ; but in producer Bob Johnston 's estimation , Lennon , Harrison and McCartney entered the hotel suite as members of the Beatles and departed as three distinct individuals , such was Dylan 's philosophical influence on fellow songwriters at the time . Following his creative peak in mid 1966 with the Blonde on Blonde double album , Dylan retired to Bearsville , New York , accompanied by the Hawks ( soon to become the Band ) , in order to recuperate from a motorcycle crash and raise a family with his wife , Sara Lownds . Little was heard from him throughout 1967 – 68 , a situation that added to his mystique as music critics and fans awaited his return .

 " Bob Dylan 's Dream " was based on the melody of the traditional " Lady Franklin 's Lament " , in which the title character dreams of finding her husband , Arctic explorer Sir John Franklin , alive and well . ( Sir John Franklin had vanished on an expedition searching for the North West Passage in 1845 ; a stone cairn on King William Island detailing his demise was found by a later expedition in 1859 . ) Todd Harvey points out that Dylan transforms the song into a personal journey , yet he retains both the theme and the mood of the original ballad . The world outside is depicted as stormy and harsh , and Dylan 's most fervent wish , like Lady Franklin 's , is to be reunited with departed companions and to relive the fond memories they represent .
