Bob Dylan
Author: Spencer Leigh
Publisher: McNidder and Grace
ISBN: 9780857162052
Category : Folk singers
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Bob Dylan: Outlaw Blues is a fresh take on the Noble price-winner, a one-man hall of mirrors who continues to intrigue his followers. It is an in-depth account with new information and fascinating opinions, both from the author and his interviewees. Whether you like Dylan or not, you will be gripped from start to finish by this remarkable tale. Spencer Leigh considers what motivates Bob Dylan and explains his often wayward behaviour. "Journalists are very fond of saying Bob Dylan is an enigma," says Spencer, "but that word is flawed. It's as good as saying you don't know. I have not called Bob Dylan an enigma at any point in this book as I've tried to find answers." He has spoken to over 300 musicians, friends and acquaintances of Dylan including Jean Baez, Judy Collins, Elvis Costello, Arlo Guthrie, Tom Paxton, the Byrds and members of the Band. Book jacket.

Category : History

Pages : 505
Book Description
This volume gathers together twenty articles from among the best scholarly writing on rock music published in academic journals over the past two decades. These diverse essays reflect the wide range of approaches that scholars in various disciplines have applied to the study of rock, from those that address mainly the historical, sociological, cultural and technological factors that gave rise to this music, to those that focus primarily on analysis of the music itself. This collection of articles, some of which are now out of print or otherwise difficult to access, provides an overview of the current state of research in the field of rock music, and includes an introduction which contributes to the ongoing debate over the distinction (or lack thereof) betweenrock andpop.

BOB DYLAN: WHAT THE SONGS MEAN
Author: Michael Karwowski
Publisher: Troubador Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 1838591737
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 568
Book Description
The meaning of Bob Dylan’s songs has long been debated by fans, critics and academics. When, in 2016, Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, the significance of his songs was confirmed. Yet their meaning has never been demonstrably explained. Dylan himself has said that people can learn everything about him through his songs: “if they know where to look.” This book shows his millions of fans exactly where that is. Dylan has written hundreds of songs, many of which are acknowledged masterpieces. “Blowin’ in the Wind”, “Like a Rolling Stone”, “Mr.Tambourine Man”, the list goes on. In the 1960s, he was hailed as a prophet. Since then, he’s generally been considered a genius. One thing he’s always been, though, is an enigma. In Bob Dylan: What the Songs Mean, critic Michael Karwowski analyses the lyrics. In the process, he opens up all sorts of avenues into philosophy, mysticism, religion, literature, art, and, of course, music. This is a “must read” book for anyone who wants to learn more about the meaning behind the songs or anyone interested in understanding how a genius sees the world. It also considers the impact Dylan’s words have had - not only on his fans, but on the worlds of popular music, culture and beyond.
