After Bob Dylan came to Nashville in 1966 to record his classic album Blonde on Blonde, his embrace of Nashville and its unmatched session musicians-known as the Nashville Cats-inspired many other artists, among them Neil Young, Joan Baez, Leonard Cohen, and Paul McCartney, to follow. Around the same time, Johnny Cash was recruiting folk and rock musicians-including Dylan-to appear on his groundbreaking network television show, The Johnny Cash Show.
This book was published as a companion to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum exhibition Dylan, Cash, and the Nashville Cats: A New Music City and features more than twenty commissioned illustrations by noted artist and musician Jon Langford. This book also includes 240 rare photographs and celebrates a time of great cultural vitality for Nashville, tracking the city’s music scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and illuminates Nashville’s rise as a world-class recording center.
