Description

'I change during the course of a day. I wake and I m one person, and when I go to sleep I know for certain I m somebody else. Bob Dylan

DYLAN ON DYLAN gathers together for the first time twenty-nine of the most significant and revealing conversations with the singer, stretching over forty years from the earliest days of his career in 1962 through to 2004. Among the highlights are the seminal Rolling Stone interviews by Jann Wenner, Jonathan Cott, Kurt Loder and Mikal Gilmore, as well as the legendary 1966 Playboy interview.

In-depth and intimate, these interviews cover the gaps left by the Chronicles: Volume 1.

Dylan expert Jonathan Cott writes an introduction to this must-have collection of the artist in his own words.

Edited by Jonathan Cott, one of the original editors of Rolling Stone and arguably the most simpatico writer ever to converse with Mr Dylan, the interview format remains eminently readable ... Mr. Cott identifies the major sea changes in Mr Dylan s life via conversational format, without undue commentary ... Nobody can explain Mr Dylan as well as he, when he cares to do it, can explain himself The New York Times
