For any fan of Bob Dylan, this is quite simply essential. For anyone with a yearning to discover just what made Dylan so special, and controversial, it provides a vivid and illuminating recreation of the legendary 1966 UK tour, focussing specifically on the May 17 show in Manchester (the most bootlegged show in history, often wrongly attributed to the Albert Hall). The former Albertos Y Lost Trios Paranoias man has written and researched a terrific tome that gets up close to its subject and breathes new life into an epic confrontational music of long ago that will never be forgotten.
