Book excerpt: SONG & DANCE MAN is an established classic, back in print for Dylan fans and scholars alike, offering the definitive retrospective appraisal of forty years of work by one of the twentieth century's most significant artists.The author, recognized as a world authority on the work and career of Bob Dylan, was the first to consider Dylan's writing as worthy of treatment as serious art. The 50th Anniversary Series, Vol. 2 - Yonder Comes Sin centers around Dylan's late-1970s move to Born Again Christianity and beyond, this volume studies Dylan's 1980s albums including Slow Train Coming and Oh Mercy plus some of the outtakes from these records, and includes a chapter devoted to the celebrated "Infidels" outtake 'Blind Willie McTell'. Now re-published in a three volume series, Vol. 1 focuses on the techniques of Dylan's writing. Vol. 2 looks at his 'born again' work and later 80's albums such as 'Oh Mercy'. Vol. 3 picks up in the 90's and follows through looking at the albums up through 'Time Out Of Mind'. Prior Reviews of Song & Dance Man: ROLLING STONE: "Monumental, endlessly illuminating."
