From his earliest years, Dylan was drawn to the country sounds he heard on the radio and on records. As he once said, Hank Williams was his first musical hero. Music historian Don Cusic traces this deep connection from Dylan's childhood through his folk years, his Nashville recordings, and into his later work--revealing how country music has remained a consistent thread throughout Dylan's long and restless career.
Now in his eighties and still performing, Dylan continues to draw from the well of country music, learning new songs and incorporating them into his live sets and recordings. This book offers fresh insight into Dylan's artistry by examining the genre that has inspired and sustained him for decades.
