Book excerpt: SONG & DANCE MAN is an established classic, back in print for Dylan fans and scholars alike, offering the definitive retrospective appraisal of forty years of work by one of the twentieth century's most significant artists.The author, recognized as a world authority on the work and career of Bob Dylan, was the first to consider Dylan's writing as worthy of treatment as serious art. The 50th Anniversary Series, Vol. 1 - Language & Tradition, provides analysis of the songs (as written and as performed) in terms of the folk tradition, the literary tradition, rock music itself, and his remarkable use of the huge body of pre-war blues lyric poetry. He examines both the complexity and the simplicity in Dylan's use of language, as well the role of drugs and mysticism.Generations of Dylan listeners have turned to Song & Dance Man to more deeply understand and appreciate the work and the accomplishments of Bob Dylan. Now re-published in a three volume series, Vol. 1 focuses on the techniques of Dylan's writing. Vol. 2 looks at his 'born again' work and later 80's albums such as 'Oh Mercy'. Vol. 3 picks up in the 90's and follows through looking at the albums up through 'Time Out Of Mind'. Prior Reviews of Song & Dance Man: ROLLING STONE: "Monumental, endlessly illuminating." LONDON REVIEW BOOKSHOP: "Song & Dance Man is probably the greatest book about the work of a single popular musician ever to have been published." EVENING STANDARD, London: "The definitive critical work."

Book excerpt: The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia is one of the most wide-ranging, informed, entertaining, provocative, and compulsively readable books ever written about popular music. It's the culmination of over thirty years of dedicated research and scholarship by Michael Gray. Inside these pages, you'll find a world of ideas, facts, and opinions. It's a world in which Baudelaire flows on from the Basement Tapes and A.S. Byatt looks out at the Byrds; in which Far from the Madding Crowd follows Ezekiel and Bob Geldof introduces Jean Genet; and in which Hank and William Carlos Williams stand side by side while J.R.R. Tolkien trails the Titanic. Most of all, of course, it's a world in which everyone and everything interconnects, in endlessly fascinating ways, with one of our greatest living artists: Bob Dylan.

Insightful and entertaining, Gray's tome will broaden appreciation of the artist, his influences and his legacy." -Publishers Weekly (starred review) "...has all you need to know, and more" -Richard Corliss, Time "This is no mere catalog of facts, but a work of oceanic immersion. It has wit, opinion, style, and asks to be read, not just consulted." -Village Voice "Deeply impressive...destined to be the most important Dylan book, bar none."-Gerry Smith, The Dylan Daily "Utterly idiosyncratic." -Janet Maslin, New York Times "Amazingly well-researched and surprisingly readable work." -Library Journal (starred review) "Door-stopping detail." -Toronto Star "Magnificent...won't just astonish readers with its detail about Dylan's work...contains so many insights and refutes so many myths about the rock 'n' roll era in general that it's invaluable as both a reference guide and a personality study." -Nashville City Paper "Comprehensive and up-to-date." -Slate

Book excerpt: A brilliantly written and groundbreaking book about Dylan's music – now the recipient of the Nobel Prize for Literature 2016 – and its musical, political and cultural roots in early 20th-century America Growing up in Greenwich Village in the 1960s Sean Wilentz discovered the music of Bob Dylan as a young teenager. Almost half a century later, now a distinguished professor of American history, he revisits Dylan's work with the critical skills of a scholar and the passion of a fan. Drawing partly on his work as the current historian-in-residence on Dylan's official website, Sean Wilentz provides a unique blend of biography, memoir and analysis in a book which, much like its subject, shifts gears and changes shape as the occasion demands.
