Exploring the Universe with Folk Songs
I’ve had Bob Dylan’s recent book “Chronicles, Volume 1” on my bookshelf for years. Just picked it up the other night in the wake of the folk music rebirth I find myself in. This quote is the best:
Folk songs were the way I explored the universe, they were pictures and the pictures were worth more than anything I could say. I knew the inner substance of the thing. I could easily connect the pieces.Good interview with him at NPR here… supposedly the first audio interview in 19 years!!
