This Day in Rock History – July 29th

1966: Bob Dylan has a bad motorcycle accident while riding his Triumph 500 near Woodstock, New York. His recovery keeps him out of the public spotlight for nine months and fuels all kinds of rumors.

Dylan uses the time to record a series of songs in a makeshift recording studio in a big pink house in Woodstock. He is accompanied by a band known as the Hawks. The songs eventually see a release as The Basement Tapes, while the Hawks change their name to the Band and release their first album (with a picture of the Woodstock house), Music from Big Pink.
