Loved this review. Having that background info on “Little Willie” in your pocket is awesome! That's the sort of thing that amazes me about Greil Marcus' writing about Dylan ... he'll invoke these little tangents and I wonder, does he have those on yellow sticky notes around his desk, just waiting? Or are they all in his well-organized mind?

And 422 Dylan shows so far? Now that is amazing! Anne Margaret, if I read that number right, you truly need to write a book of your own, please. It could find a spot on the shelf next to Ray's.

Thanks Ann Margaret. Gots to love that name. I look forward to reading more of you. Concerts and the civic life are overwhelming now. I blame Bob Dylan for, as Paul Simon told Larry Campbell,, trying to get as much chaos as possible in a performance. So,, yes, he obviously ruined Western Civilization 🤣
