DESCRIPTION:
Using newly discovered manuscripts, anecdotal evidence, and a seemingly limitless knowledge of every Bob Dylan live performance, he has uncovered a wealth of information, leaving no stone unturned in his research.. 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. The second of two volumes, this companion to every song that Bob Dylan ever wrote is the most comprehensive book on the words of America’s greatest songwriter
"Clinton Heylin, master explicator of the Dylan canon, has however improbably, sorted it all out for us through the tangled '80's and beyond, completing what he started in Revolution In The Air. The book is essential." —Jonathan Lethem
We Just Saw It From A Different Point Of View Dr. Thomas E. Parker If you're reading reviews about "Still on the Road" it probably means you're pretty serious about Dylan's work. I am, and that's why I read Clinton Heylin's books. He does the kind of research I can't do, so I appreciate the light he throws on Dylan's work. His books ar. Better than the first volume Jason The second volume in this two-part examination of every song Dylan ever wrote is a more entertaining read than its predecessor, perhaps because it covers periods of Dylan's career that have gotten less attention than his groundbreaking 60s work. Heylin has clearly done . Does Heylin even like Dylan's music? I'm serious when I ask if Heylin even likes Bob's music, as he seems to do nothing but second guess and put down his output. There is a lot of great research here, bringing to my attention songs that were just rumors, or snippets, and bringing forth as much information
