Summary
"The first of two volumes, this companion to every song that Bob Dylan ever wrote is by far the most comprehensive book on the words of America?s greatest songwriter. Here you?ll find not just opinionated commentary or literary interpretation, but facts, first and foremost. Clinton Heylin is the world?s leading Dylan biographer and expert, and he has arranged the songs--including a number that have never been performed--in a continually surprising chronology of when they were actually written rather than when they appeared on albums. Using newly discovered manuscripts, anecdotal evidence, and a seemingly limitless knowledge of every Bob Dylan live performance, he has uncovered a wealth of information about the songs, leaving no stone unturned in his research." -- Publisher description.
