Product Story

This is the book that takes Bob Dylan fans behind the liner notes of all 492 songs the folk legend has recorded since 1962. Organized by album date, this essential encyclopedia was thoroughly researched and reverently written by music historians Philippe Margotin and Jean-Michel Guesdon. They list the studio, producer, and sound engineer for each track, then delve deeper into that song’s lyrics, inspiration, and production, detailing everything from Dylan’s struggle to play the guitar part on “Baby, Let Me Follow You Down” to the number of takes required for “Mixed-Up Confusion.” The book includes trivia tidbits flagged “For Dylan Addicts,” tributes to his influences like Woody Guthrie, and 600 photographs. Hardcover. 704 pages. 10 1/2" H x 8 1/2" W x 2" D. (6 lbs.)
