Bob Dylan's impact on popular music has been incalculable. Having
transformed staid folk music into a vehicle for coruscating social
commentary, he then swept away the romantic platitudes of rock 'n'
roll with his searing intellect. From the zeitgeist-encapsulating
protest of 'Blowin' in the Wind' to the streetwise venom of 'Like a
Rolling Stone', and from the stunning mid-sixties trilogy of albums
- Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on
Blonde - to Time Out of Mind, his stunning if world-weary comeback
at the age of 56, Dylan's genius has endured, underpinned by the
dazzling turn of phrase that has made him the pre-eminent poet of
popular music. Because Dylan's achievements have no equal, his
career is the most chronicled in rock history. Here, Sean Egan
presents a selection of the best writing on Dylan, both praise and
criticism. Interviews, essays, features and reviews from Dylan
intimates and scholars such as John Bauldie, Michael Gray, Nat
Hentoff and Jules Siegel are interspersed with new narrative and
reviews of every single album to create a comprehensive picture of
the artist whose chimes of freedom still resound.
