Running Press Book Publishers, 2011 - Biography & Autobiography - 518 pages
Bob Dylan transformed not only folk music, but rock ’n’ roll as a whole: he brought the intellectualism of folk lyrics to a genre still dominated by romantic conventions. From the phenomenal commercial success of his 1965 epic, gritty single “Like a Rolling Stone” toTime Out of Mind, rock’s first treatise on mortality, in 1997, Dylan has been fearlessly breaking new ground. TheMammoth Book of Bob Dylanexplores his phenomenal legacy in over 500 pages of Dylan exposé!
