REVOLUTION IN THE AIR Songs of Bob Dylan Vol 1: 1957 - 73 "The most exhaustive, balanced and intelligent account of Dylan's accomplishments that anybody is likely to provide."Daily Telegraph 'Revolution in the Air' is by far the most comprehensive book on Bob Dylan's words ever written, including a number of songs that have never been released. Arranged in a surprising chronology of when his songs were actually written rather than when they appeared on albums - the middle verse of "Blowin' in the Wind" was written much later than the first and third verses, and the songs on John Wesley Harding were written prior to some of the songs on The Basement Tapes - hundreds of surprising facts are uncovered in this catalogue of 300 songs, spanning his career up prior to Blood on the Tracks. Newly discovered manuscripts, anecdotal evidence, and a seemingly limitless knowledge of every Bob Dylan live performance contribute to this definitive resource of the words of a celebrated American singer-songwriter. Author details: Clinton Heylin is one of the most distinguished writers on Bob Dylan in the world. He is the author of the 'Bob Dylan: Behind the Shades Revisited' and the 'Bob Dylan Reader'. He has also written on all aspects of popular culture including 'The Act You've Known For All These Years: A Year in the Life of Sgt. Pepper and 'Friends', 'Despite the System: Orson Welles versus the Hollywood Studios' and 'Babylon Burning: From Punk to Grunge'. 'The Songs of Bob Dylan Vol 2' will be published in 2010. "Heylin comes closer than anyone to unlocking the magic and mystery of rock's most captivating performer." Record Collector 'Revolution in the Air: Songs of Bob Dylan Vol 1' by Clinton Heylin is published in July 2009 by Hardie Grant Books (RRP $45.00 Hardback).
