Bob Dylan changed the face of music in the 1960s with his poetic lyrics and raspy voice, and 40 years later, he continues to be a respected songwriter and musical force. Isis , the premier Dylan magazine, has covered the movements of this cultural icon for 20 years, and this anthology combines the best interviews and articles culled from the magazine's archives. Coupled with previously unpublished photographs, these chronological essays provide a unique take on Dylan-related events such as tours and new albums. Both casual and hardcore fans will appreciate this treasure trove of Dylan information.
2005 collection of pieces from ISIS. There's some trivial stuff in here (of "the night I met Bob ilk") but also some excellent essays, particularly on Like a Rolling Stone, Blood on the Tracks, and Time Out of Mind. The essay on Cold Irons Bound was particularly good and insightful.
