I thought they were Neil Young's back up band while Crazy Horse was on hiatus. I also like a lot of artists whose politics differ from mine, including NY.
Bob Dylan is an interesting case. He played the hippie/liberals until he got popular. As he said, "I got my foot in the door and they weren't getting me out". The documentary No Direction Home covered his rise to fame in detail, including the scene at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965. Dave Van Ronk talks about Dylan being totally apolitical. No interest whatsoever.
