Highway 61 Revisited by Mark Polizzotti, published by Continuum Books, 33 1/3
Tant Mieux is pleased to announce the new book Highway 61 Revisited by Mark Polizzotti, published by Continuum-Books which is already getting a great deal of attention. Of course, it would be remiss to not tell you about this... so then...
about
Between the fitfully brilliant Bringing It All Back Home and the sprawling masterwork that is Blonde on Blonde, Highway 61 Revisited stands as the defining moment in both Dylan’s career and the musical evolution of the mid-1960s. But beyond its place in history, Highway 61 works because of its enduring emotional appeal. Few songwriters before Dylan or since have combined so effectively the intensely personal with the spectacularly universal. In this incisive book, Mark Polizzotti shines a critical light on these remarkable songs and shows us the timeless qualities that make them – and the album as a whole – so affecting.
the word
"I've been listening to Highway 61 Revisited for 41 years now, but Mark Polizzotti's 33 1/3 book sent me back to hear all the things I've missed. His thoughtful and knowledgeable appraisal both summarizes scholarship on the album and adds new ideas and details, contributing to a deeper sense of how this landmark Dylan album came to be."--Ira Robbins, editor, www.Trouserpress.com
"A few pages into Mark Polizzotti's Highway 61 Revisited, I was amazed by how much he knew. A few pages after that, I was amazed by how much I didn't. The whole book is a marvel of research and insight, doled out in equal measure. Something was indeed happening in the grooves of this seminal Bob Dylan album--and after reading this compact yet loaded analysis, you will know what it is, Mr. Jones."--David Bianculli
