SONG & DANCE MAN is an established classic, back in print for Dylan fans and scholars alike, offering the definitive retrospective appraisal of forty years of work by one of the twentieth century's most significant artists.The author, recognized as a world authority on the work and career of Bob Dylan, was the first to consider Dylan's writing as worthy of treatment as serious art. The 50th Anniversary Series, Vol. 3 World Gone Right focuses on Dylan's 1990s albums including a defence of "Under The Red Sky" for its innovative use of nursery rhyme, a history of the folk & blues songs on "Good As I Been To You" and "World Gone Wrong", a re-assessment of "Time Out Of Mind" and a closing overview. Now re-published in a three volume series, Vol. 1 focuses on the techniques of Dylan's writing. Vol. 2 looks at his 'born again' work and later 80's albums such as 'Oh Mercy'. Vol. 3 picks up in the 90's and follows through looking at the albums up through 'Time Out Of Mind'. Prior Reviews of Song & Dance Man: ROLLING STONE: "Monumental, endlessly illuminating."
