Bob Dylan: Mixing Up the Medicine

Very well thought out and presented. Going in strict timeline. Plenty of stuff for Dylan experts as well as new or casual fans.It’s definitely a book I’ll treasure and return to; sends you back to the albums and lyrics.It has a bright and colourful vibe - bit like the wonderful Philosophy of Modern Song.Retro ticket stubs and concert posters a delight.

Very good interesting book. I still have a way to go but it's the sort of book you can pick up and read as much or as little as you like. So much of Dylan's history I would recommend it to any fan of his.

I waited for the book too come down from £80:00 too the £48:00 I paid I’m seriously happy with it it’s a lovely book great pictures it covers a wide range it’s good quality a huge heavy coffee table book it’s a must for any Bob fan a lovely lovely book it even cover’s Bob’s last album shadow kingdom has some beautiful pictures very pleased

If you don't know, Bob Dylan is a genius. He deserved his Nobel because he is the most literate member of the rock pantheon. He might be musically primitive. He might be politically naif, but he seems to be someone never satisfied with his own art, forever exploring the possibilities that the song form presents, including redefining his own greatest hits.Having said that, if you want to know the Dylan story, this is not your starting point. If you have absorbed the words and music of Bob Dylan into your very being over the six decades since "Blowin' In The Wind" then this is the book for you. Expensive and weighty it might be, but it honours its subject as a true artist, revealing the workings of the man and his scraps of paper. For me, those little snippets of songs in gestation are the best parts, but the text is respectful of the man's brilliance. If you don't believe Dylan warrants this genuflection, go away now and listen to Blood On The Tracks now.There must be a downside? Well, it is in the modern tradition of expensive books that are an event in themselves (McCartney's Lyrics springs to mind) so you might want to watch out for deals. If there is a paperback edition of this book it won't be able to reproduce the splendour of the hardback so I would strongly recommend sticking with the hardback. Any hardcore Dylan fan will not be disappointed (I know, there's always someone who will moan but I find it hard to see why).There is an accompanying CD/LP (bought separately) that weirdly lets Dylan down.This might be for the hardcore Dylan fan only, but also people interested in the artistic process. If we had something similar for Shakespeare or Milton it would be a treasure for generations. So, I hope, will this volume be.

I am a big fan of Bob Dylan and too get this at such a price was amazing. Such a good read and reference book

No issues

Great book and well presented. Loads of information with pictures.

Exhaustive, definitive, thorough, complete - just a few of the superlatives directed at this work. Yet it identifies James Joyce on page 497, as ‘an English modernist’. Is that cultural appropriation, lazy research or just plain ignorance?

This is an amazing book from the Bob Dylan center in Tulsa. Anyone with a strong connection with Dylan will find this to be very enjoyable and informative.

El maestro Dylan de nuevo nos sorprende con este compilado del pasar de sus años con tantas cosas que debe tener guardadas, pura memorabilia, excelente edición y llegó en tiempo y forma, para los amantes del gran Bob una excelente compra

This books is waaaay better than even I expected! It’s big fat & heavy liftin too. Seems like great quality thing with pages. Lots of pages! Loving every second of it since it arrived onto my doorsteps. Even comes rapped in plastic shrinking rap! Looks awesome.I’ll share more detail after I unrap it.Thanks Amazone!

Bien documenté et illustré
