Scorsese, PBS reveal another side of Bob Dylan
Martin Scorcese directed a Bob Dylan documentary, called "No Direction Home: Bob Dylan," that airs this Monday and Tuesday at 9pm, est, on PBS. From the reviews I've read, it should be quite, and we already know the soundtrack will rock. It follows Dylan's career as he starts out in early 60s Greenwich Village, and it ends in 1966, after he went electric and was called a "traitor" by folkie purists. Twits.
So, I know where I'll be this Monday and Tuesday...
There's also a book called Positively 4th Street: The Lives and Times of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Mimi Baez Farina and Richard Farina, which follows that troupe in Greenwich Village. I haven't had a chance to read it yet, but it's on my perpetual list of books I need to get.
