Still on the Road

This is the second volume in Clinton Heylins magisterial survey of the songs of Bob Dylan. The first volume - Revolution in the Air which is now available in paperback - charted the rise of Bob Dylan from his first jottings to the full expression of genius in songs such as Hard Rain Gonna Fall and The Times They Are a Changin.

Still on the Road begins in 1974 with "Blood on the Tracks", the album filled with masterworks such as Tangled Up in Blue and Simple Twist of Fate that heralded a watershed in Dylans creative journey, and continues to chart his never-ending fascination with music and the art of song up to 2006s "Modern Times".

Praise for Revolution in the Air:

Beg, steal, borrow ... a compelling history of Dylans mercurial song writing.Mojo, 5-star review

Better than any biography could ever be, and a crucial Dylan book Jonathan Letham

Valuable resourceObserver

A gripping new book by Dylan scholar Clinton Heylin so is so far in the deep end that its borderline insane . . [yet] has been devoured with a ravenous, insatiable appetite, and I have even made notes in the margin. Mark Ellen, Word.

Terrifically interesting for Dylan nutsSunday Herald

Manna for completistsMetro

True to form, Heylin digs deep-way deep-into the songs, mixing cold hard facts with illuminating anecdotes. - Mark Smith, managing editor, Acoustic Guitar
