Another great article. Wow, what a thing, to get a letter saying Bob wants to use your photo. For Blood on the Tracks! And then it becomes absolutely iconic.
As a 15 year old in 1975, I thought that cover was magic. Still think so.
Also, very cool interview in Rolling Stone! But come on Ray, you’re a huge Bob Dylan fan and you’re completely uninterested in the words?!? I don’t believe you! Not sayin you’re a liar but …
Crazy amazing story! What luck Paul Till had! I'm surprised that after having had 3 of his photos used he didn't appeal to Bob's office for a photo pass for future shows! What a fairy tale, so good! And I dig Toronto's Coach House Press too - they've put out some cool books!
You guys didn't get into what Paul is up to now, and if photography is still just a hobby or if he's made a career of it.
Great interview. I had heard a bit about the Blood On The Tracks photo but not to that extent. And I had no idea he got so many Bob shots that they used.
Funny thing the only concert I was ever kicked out of was Bob at the Tabernacle here in Atlanta. Taking a photograph of course. I didn’t realize the flash was on.

Remarkable story. For fifty years and hundreds of listens I swore that cover resulted from brush strokes. Check out his portfolio, and the NYC images.
Amazing article, thank you!
I learned how to play guitar out of that song book. The first song with chords I ever learned was You Ain’t Goin Nowhere from that book.
Paul Till, what story! Thanks to you, Ray Padgett, for knowing everything!
