New issue of MOJO - a must-have for collectors

Dylan collectors won’t want to miss the new (“September”) issue of MOJO, the Brit Dadrock monthly.

In addition to the desirable cover-mounted CD, The Roots Of Bob Dylan: 15 Tracks that inspired the Legend, the mag has a 17 page set of features, with two accounts of Dylan’s bounceback from the lows of the late 1980s/early 1990s, including a stunning Gerald Scarfe cartoon.

There’s also a track-by-track review of Modern Times, due at the end of August, by Robert Hilburn.

The Dylan content is so dominant that it looks as if the MOJO issue was originally planned with a Bob cover, which was then bumped late, to accommodate the portrait of the late Syd Barrett greeting buyers at the news-stands.

The rest of the mag, Joan Baez feature included, is of little interest here, but, while I don’t buy many issues of MOJO, the Sept 2006 edition is a must-have.
