PERFECT FOR FANS OF THE FILM A COMPLETE UNKNOWN.

Examine the stories behind Bob Dylan's most famous songs, tracing the artist's progress from young folk hero to bold protest singer, tracing his innovative musical output through his most dynamic and creative period.

Acclaimed music writer Andy Gill - former chief music critic of the Independent - uncovers the background behind each song, exploring the early songbook of the man who came to dominate American music and popular culture for decades to come.

Always one step ahead of the crowd, always pushing himself to extend the boundaries of his art, the Dylan of the 1960s remains a beacon of integrity to which fans and fellow musicians keep returning.

Andy Gill started as a freelance writer for NME in 1977 and went on to become chief rock critic for the Independent, a role he held for more than 25 years. He also wrote for Uncut, Q, Empire and Mojo magazines. He died in 2019.
