How Many Roads - Scott Peeples

Popis produktu

How Many Roads chronicles Bob Dylan’s rise from apprenticeships in Minneapolis cafés and Greenwich Village folk clubs to international stardom as a breathtakingly original songwriter and singer. Scott Peeples follows Dylan through decades of radical shifts in his writing, recording and performing styles, from the intimate lo-fi Basement Tapes to the musical collage art and apocalyptic blues of the twenty-first century. Spanning Dylan’s entire career, How Many Roads illuminates Dylan’s deep respect for tradition alongside his artistic restlessness, a combination that extends into his prose writing, filmmaking and visual art. Weaving lucid analyses of Dylan’s major albums and live performances into a briskly paced biographical narrative, Peeples offers newcomers and Dylan die-hards alike a fresh perspective on the most compelling and challenging popular performer of our time.
