Bob Dylan arrived in New York one winter morning in 1961. His music and spirit would go on to capture the hearts and minds of a generation, but what no one knew then was that, like so many before him, Dylan was concealing his Jewish origins. For Harry Freedman, Dylan’s roots are the key to grasping how this complete unknown burst onto the scene and reinvented not only himself, but popular music. The instinct for escape and reinvention has defined Dylan’s long career.

Bob Dylan. Non è nemmeno più un nome e cognome. È uno spettro, l'evidente incarnazione di qualcosa che non c'è più, che non c'è ancora. Si ama per resa, invidia, ammirazione. Si adora perché non saremo mai come lui, non riusciremo mai a lasciarci tutto alle spalle, non saremo mai così avanti rispetto ai nostri tempi. Forse è impossibile ascoltare Dylan per la prima volta, perché si aspetta di ascoltarlo per la prima volta tutta la vita.

In Roadhouse Blues, Bob Batchelor presents an epic tale of one of rock's (and America's) most significant periods, as the "Age of Aquarius" gave way to a new age of mayhem, presidential misdeeds, and murder. Batchelor combines cultural history, musical and lyrical analysis, and a broad stroke of pop-culture mythos to give fresh perspective on a pivotal time. Candid, authoritative, and utterly absorbing, Roadhouse Blues is a biography of a man, a band, and an era that set the tone for the contemporary world.

"Blowin' in the wind", "All along the watchtower", "Knockin' on heaven's door" – seine Songs besitzen eine poetische Kraft, für die er mit dem Nobelpreis für Literatur geehrt wurde. Nun legt Bob Dylan ein Buch vor, in dem er nicht auf sein eigenes Werk zurückblickt, sondern auf mehr als 60 Songs, die ihn beeindruckt und geprägt haben. Mysteriös und magisch, präzise und profund, oft auch sehr witzig legt er die Substanz jedes Songs frei und meditiert dabei in unnachahmlich dylanesker Diktion über das menschliche Leben und den fragwürdigen Zustand unserer Welt.

Roberto «Bob» Bissonnette, le marchand de bonheur. Décédé à l’âge de 35 ans dans un accident d’hélicoptère, le hockeyeur devenu vedette du rock a certes connu une vie trop courte, mais n’en a assurément gaspillé aucune seconde. La pédale au plancher, donnant son 110 % sur la glace, sur scène ou même autour d’un feu de camp, il aura été l’incarnation même de la maxime carpe diem, «saisir le jour».

Bob Dylan è uno dei più prolifici e longevi cantautori della storia. Nel corso della sua decennale carriera ha spaziato tra moltissimi generi (dal folk al rock, dall'acustico all'elettrico, dalla musica impegnata a quella con tematiche religiose), cavalcando sempre l'onda dell'innovazione.

Over a prolific 40-year career, The Fall created a world that was influential, idiosyncratic and fiercely original - and defied simple categorisation. Their front man and lyricist, Mark E Smith, spun opaque tales that resisted conventional understanding; The Fall's worldview was an education in its own right. Who wouldn't want to be armed with a working knowledge of M R James, shipping-dock procedures, contemporary dance, Manchester City and Can? The group inspired and shaped the lives of those who listened to and tried to make sense of their work.
