local_shippingShip to Me
Overview
Exploring Bob Dylan's career, recordings, and life to the present day, a portrait of an artist constantly seeking freedom and artistic control.
How Many Roads chronicles Bob Dylan's rise from apprenticeships in Minneapolis caf s 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 diehards alike a fresh perspective on the most compelling and challenging popular performer of our time.
