`The best Dylan study yet with massive quotation from his lyrics and a careful balance held in assessment of his work`
Sunday Times
`Deserves to sell a million treats Dylan with the sustained intelligence and chaotic wit he deserves`
Socialist Worker
`Of the six books published about Bob Dylan to date, this stimulating analysis of Dylan`s songs and lyrics is the only one that merits serious consideration as scholarship.... Gray`s achievements (are) in showing just how im-portant and complex an artist Dylan is... the flaws pale beside the wisdom, insight and analytical brilliance of the book. Michael Gray, as author and person, is a genuine Dylan scholar, impelled by fascination with the man`s art. He is not exploiting or hustling or hawking Dylan for the fast dollar or pound, but is a serious student with something to say.. Gray joins the select fraternity of Dylan students who are forming the basis for a body of scholarship that will one day illuminate our schools, colleges and streets with the importance of that song and dance man who has affected so many so deeply`
Robert Shelton
