A while back a group of my old friends had planned to do a YOLO trip to Hibbing because we all shared a somewwhat obsessive interest in Dylan's roots. Great to see that this book fills the void that our aborted trip left us with. What we did come up with was a sort of radio play ,based on one of our group's son's fierce opposition and ridicule of our plans that incorporated several spoken word rock pieces on Dylan related themes that we'd produced over the years. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RX4-YdgHcZw&t=2153s

Of course! I should’ve worked it out. And thank you so much for your positive remarks regarding Rock and the Beat Generation. Much appreciated. I will have a look at your remarks at Rock Critics.
