A great, great book! 12. Juli 2000
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Song and Dance Man III by Michael Gray is a tremendous book about Bob Dylan and it is bound to become THE essential book on the American singer. It deserves it. Even the front cover is great : no 1965 photo of Dylan there, but a weirdly beautiful one taken in a street of London in July 1993. Look at the face for a few seconds and then you can open the book and delight in the discoveries you'll find in its nearly 1,000 pages. Every chapter is amazingly rich, provocative and a tremendous reading and learning experience. The notes at the bottom of the pages are in themselves another book and the scope and wealth of the information are exceptional. There is, for example, a fantastic chapter about the influence of pre-war blues on Dylan that captivated me. So did the chapters about Dylan's use of the Bible and his interest in nursery rhymes and fairy tales. Michael Gray has two qualities that most of the other writers on Dylan lack : he knows how to write and he knows what he writes about. His style is clear, rich, sharp and funny. Every literary and musical influences of Dylan is revealed. The extraordinary talent and significance of Bob Dylan burst through the pages and make you want to go and listen to all his albums and to all the great music that Dylan has loved and absorbed.

This is the third edition of a classic book. It is a great big all-encompassing tome. In its pages you will find a wealth of knowledge, anecdotes, asides, ...You will find the author's unrivalled insights, his incredible breadth of interests. From the extraordinary detail to the intelligent objective overview, this book has something to offer everyone interested in our culture, not just Dylan afficionados. The Bible, the blues, Folk, poetry - whatever moves and shapes Dylan is explored here, worth every cent!

Von P. Teece
Format:Taschenbuch
A great book. Erudite AND entertaining. Perhaps its finest quality is its integrity: it makes a compelling case for Dylan's genius, while simultaneously avoiding the hagiography which so bedevils much adoring work on Bob. In other words, it has real critical balance. The latter section on the ageing Bob is almost painfully honest and realistic...but the book is all the better for it. The 100-odd page chapter on Dylan's use of, and homage to, pre war blues lyrics is 'worth the price' on its own. And the terrific use of footnotes in this section makes the work a bit like the acquisition of that first bootleg album - you might think you're just dipping a toe in the water, but before you know it you've plunged right in...and you'll never get out. The section on nursery rhyme is especially intriguing. And the excellent analysis of biblical sources is good enough to make all but the most bigoted fans open their ears [and minds] to this fundamental element of Dylan's inspiration. Given its immense size, there must presumably be the odd error in it, but few show [wasn't it Liam Clancy who Bob described as the best ever ballad singer, and not Tommy Makem, by the way?]. Song & Dance Man 3 seems likely to be as useful ten years on as it is fascinating on the very first read. It will be on [and off] my bookshelves for a very long time.
