As the boxes started to arrive, the Foundation asked Clinton Heylin - author of the acclaimed \u003ci\u003eBob Dylan- Behind the Shades\u003c\/i\u003e and 'perhaps the world's authority on all things Dylan' (\u003ci\u003eRolling Stone\u003c\/i\u003e) - to assess the material they had been given. What he found in Tulsa - as well as what he gleaned from other papers he had recently been given access to by Sony and the Dylan office - so changed his understanding of the artist, especially of his creative process, that he became convinced that a whole new biography was needed. It turns out that much of what previous biographers - Dylan himself included - have said is wrong; often as not, a case of, Print the Legend.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e With fresh and revealing information on every page \u003ci\u003eA Restless, Hungry Feeling\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of Dylan's meteoric rise to fame- his arrival in early 1961 in New York, where he is embraced by the folk scene; his elevation to spokesman of a generation whose protest songs provide the soundtrack for the burgeoning Civil Rights movement; his alleged betrayal when he 'goes electric' at Newport in 1965; his subsequent controversial world tour with a rock 'n' roll band; and the recording of his three undisputed electric masterpieces- \u003ci\u003eBringing it All Back Home\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eHighway 61 Revisited\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBlonde on Blonde\u003c\/i\u003e. At the peak of his fame in July 1966 he reportedly crashes his motorbike in Woodstock, upstate New York, and disappears from public view. When he re-emerges, he looks different, his voice sounds different, his songs are different. That other story will be told in Volume 2, to be published in autumn 2022.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Clinton Heylin's meticulously researched, all-encompassing and consistently revelatory account of these fascinating early years is the closest we will ever get to a definitive life of an artist who has been the lodestar of popular culture for six decades.","brand":"Unity Books","offers":[{"title":"Double Life of Bob Dylan Vol. 1 a Restless Hungry Feeling: 1941-1966","offer_id":44634487554245,"sku":null,"price":50.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/6679\/3413\/files\/978-1-5291-1159-0.jpg?v=1743679341","url":"https:\/\/unitybooks.myshopify.com\/products\/double-life-of-bob-dylan-vol-1-a-restless-hungry-feeling-1941-1966","provider":"Unity Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
