Manager for Bob Dylan's concert tours in the United Kingdom during 1965 and 1966. Difficulty of road managing Dylan and his entourage during those tours can only be imagined. Fred's important role at keeping Bob happy and making sure that the concerts occurred on time and as expected is briefly revealed during the films "Dont Look Back" (D. A. Pennebaker) and "No Direction Home" (Martin Scorsese). He had a notable on screen speaking part during his reading from a newspaper review of Dylan's 1965 Sheffield concert. During that same era, Fred Perry also served as tour manager for the English pop group, Herman's Hermits. Unlike some people in his position, Fred was generally appreciated by journalists covering the musical acts because he did his best to help reporters do their job without imposing niggling little restrictions.
