AUTHOR: WILLIAMS, PAUL, 1948-

Title: Bob Dylan: Performing Artist: the Middle Years, 1974-1986

Novato, Calif: Underwood-Miller, c Sep 1992.

Notes: Discography: p. 309-317. Filmography: p. 318-320. Includes bibliographical references (p. 321-324) & index. Probably the best general studies of Dylan that have yet appeared. Williams largely eschews lyric analysis and biography in favor of an admittedly nebulous look at Dylan the "performer:" singer, songwriter, movie maker, song and dance man. You might not agree with everything Williams says, but there's no better survey of his output.

Subjects: Dylan, Bob, 1941-; -- Criticism and interpretation -- Performances
