Description
The second volume of the bestselling history of Bob Dylan's songs This is the second volume in Clinton Heylin's magisterial survey of the songs of Bob Dylan. The first volume - Revolution in the Air which is now available in paperback - charted the rise of Bob Dylan from his first jottings to the full expression of genius in songs such as Hard Rain Gonna Fall' and The Times They Are a Changin'. Still on the Road begins in 1974 with "Blood on the Tracks", the album filled with masterworks such as Tangled Up in Blue' and Simple Twist of Fate' that heralded a watershed in Dylan's creative journey, and continues to chart his never-ending fascination with music and the art of song up to 2006's "Modern Times".
