Dylan on Dylan - at 50% discount

Dylan On Dylan: The Essential Interviews, by Jonathan Cott, the English version of Bob Dylan: The Essential Interviews, is on sale as a striking hardback, alongside Rio, Alan Titchmarsh and the rest of the celeb hardback biogs at Asda supermarkets, at a whopping 50% discount - £9.96, down from £18.99.

If I didn’t already have the US edition, I’d have slipped it in my trolley tonight, alongside the nutrient-free cream cake, dead dog sausages and tinned steak and kidney pudding.

Fabulous book, fabulous price. I reviewed it here a couple of months ago:

New: Dylan on Dylan - The Essential Interviews

Dylan on Dylan: The Essential Interviews, edited by Jonathan Cott (Hodder & Stoughton, £18.99), has just gone on sale in Borders in England.

Published in the USA in May this year under a slightly different title - Bob Dylan: The Essential Interviews (Wenner Books, $23.95) - it’s the definitive collection, with a mighty 31 interviews, from the much bootlegged Cynthia Gooding radio interview in 1962 to Robert Hilburn in the LA Times in 2004, including four major interviews from Rolling Stone, the 1966 Playboy interview and a transcript of Studs Terkel’s famed Chicago radio interview from 1963.

Recommended: if you’re a Dylan collector, you need this book, whether in its US or English edition.
