"In 1936, Mr. Williamson realized that his family had outgrown its Devon farm. He realized that he himself needed fresh fields to explore.

Leicht berieben und vergilbt, sonst guter Zustand. - Bob Dylan, eine der legendären Persönlichkeiten der Folk-und Rockmusik, war politische Leitfigur einer ganzen Generation. Seine Liedtexte haben die Rockmusik revolutioniert. Auch musikalisch hat er sich über bestehende Konventionen immer wieder hinweggesetzt. Was macht die Musik dieses eigenwilligen Künstlers so faszinierend? Was ist das Besondere, das Einzigartige an Dylans Musik? Diesen Fragen geht Paul Williams in Like A Rolling Stone nach. Er befaßt sich - anders als alle anderen Dylan-Autoren - nicht nur mit Dylans Leben, seinen Texten oder seiner gesellschaftlichen Rolle, sondern vor allem mit seinem künstlerischen Werk als Interpret und Live-Musiker.
