"Idiot Wind" is a song by Bob Dylan, which appeared on his 1975 album Blood on the Tracks. The song was written in the summer of 1974, after Dylan's comeback tour with The Band that year and separation from Sara Dylan, whom he had married in 1965. Dylan had moved to a farm in Minnesota with his brother, David Zimmerman, and there started to write the songs that were recorded for his album Blood on the Tracks. Some reviewers have speculated that the song is a reflection on Dylan's personal life
