"Song publishing is the one constant in the carousel of recorded music now spanning the past century, and has been the way that song-credits and publishing revenue have caused ructions and recriminations, and inspired writers by making them poor and lawyers rich. Whether it be Procul Harum going to court to decide who really wrote 'Whiter Shade of Pale' or the Moody Blues wanting their fair share of 'Nights of White Satin', when the song-credits get divvied up, a parting of the ways citing 'musical differences' is almost inevitable.

"The first of two volumes, this companion to every song that Bob Dylan ever wrote is by far the most comprehensive book on the words of America?s greatest songwriter. Here you?ll find not just opinionated commentary or literary interpretation, but facts, first and foremost. Clinton Heylin is the world?s leading Dylan biographer and expert, and he has arranged the songs--including a number that have never been performed--in a continually surprising chronology of when they were actually written rather than when they appeared on albums.
