In between are moments of euphoric discovery: From Marcus's liner notes for the 1967 Basement Tapes (pop music's most famous bootlegged archives) to his exploration of Dylan's reimagining of the American experience in the 1997 \u003ci\u003eTime Out of Mind\u003c\/i\u003e.

Marcus follows not only recordings but performances, books, movies, and all manner of highways and byways in which Bob Dylan has made himself felt in our culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Together the dozens of pieces collected here comprise a portrait of how, throughout his career, Bob Dylan has drawn upon and reinvented the landscape of traditional American song, its myths and choruses, heroes and villains. They are the result of a more than forty-year engagement between an unparalleled singer and a uniquely acute listener.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGreil Marcus\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eBob Dylan by Greil Marcus\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWhen that Rough God Goes Riding, The Shape of Things to Come, Mystery Train, Dead Elvis, In the Fascist Bathroom, Double Trouble, Like a Rolling Stone\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Old Weird America\u003c\/i\u003e; a twentieth anniversary edition of his book \u003ci\u003eLipstick Traces\u003c\/i\u003e was published in 2009. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e With Werner Sollors he is the editor of \u003ci\u003eA New Literary History of America\u003c\/i\u003e, published last year by Harvard University Press.
