Synopsis
Based on three years of research, new documentary evidence, and interviews with 250 of Dylan's intimates -- many exclusive -- Down the Highway has gone beyond the scope of other accounts to become the most complete, authoritative biography of Bob Dylan now in print. It was praised by The Orlando Sentinel "for the insights it offers to Dylan at work ... from young upstart to grand old man of rock 'n' roll." Sounes's prodigious research has resulted in new insights on every aspect of Dylan's life. His is the only biography to seriously address the past twenty years of Dylan's life, leading up to the extraordinary recent releases Time Out of Mind and Love and Theft. He has obtained exclusive information to provide the clearest picture yet of Dylan's 1966 motorcycle accident and subsequent "lost years" in Woodstock, New York, and he uncovered the star's unknown second marriage. He gives inside accounts of the tours, the creation of every album and the most celebrated songs, Dylan's labyrinthine love life, his life-threatening heart illness in 1997, and more -- directly from interviews with girlfriends, family, friends, producers, concert promoters, and fellow musicians. Candid, refreshing, and written with a sincere appreciation of Dylan's music and influence, Down the Highway is an essential book for the millions of people who have enjoyed Dylan's music over the years. "Dylan comes alive.... Sounes has added a wealth of new information to Dylan studies." -- Perry Meisel, The New York Times Book Review "Fascinating and finely written." -- Ronald Radosh, The New Republic "Convincing ... [generates] sympathy for an isolated artist." -- Daniel Cooper, The Washington Post Book World "Sounes ... opens new angles on the enigmatic polyhedron that is Dylan.... Monumental." -- Gene Santoro, The Nation " "A portrait of Mr. Dylan that is often unflattering, sometimes puzzling, but, to the author's credit, never sensational." -- Al Brumley, The Dallas Morning News "Engrossing ... fast-moving yet rich in detail ... [Down the Highway] chronicles a remarkable and contradictory artist." -- Carlo Wolff, The Kansas City Star "[This] fast-paced book has a fine interest in details [and is] rich with the observations of new witnesses." -- Sheri Linden, Variety "Irresistible ... What Dylanphile wouldn't want to sift through what Sounes has dug up." -- Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press

    Nice item. As described. Packaged well. Though, I was a little shocked when I saw the USPS sticker attached to the tube the poster came in said the cost of shipping was $6.50. I paid almost double that amount. That being said, I know I’m the one who agreed to pay that shipping price so I refuse to leave a bad or neutral review. I just feel like the shipping costs need to be lowered if it’s going to take two weeks to arrive. I’d do business with this seller again if he lowers his shipping costs.

    Item shipped and received on time. Hit Parader 7/72 packaged well with cardboard and plastic sleeve. Item is as described; maybe even better- almost mint for its age, which makes the value of it better. Much thanks to seller.

    Great transaction. The seller slipped this vintage book into a flat media polybag before placing everything into a sturdy mailer. The book arrived in excellent condition with no tears or scuffs to its dustjacket or internal pages beyond what was depicted in its onLine auction images. Quick turnaround, speedy delivery. A1 service & sorry for the late feedback as I thought I already reviewed this transaction.
