The Bob Dylan Scrapbook : 1956-1966 is an essential addition to every music fan's collection - an illustrated, interactive biography that gives rare insight into one of the most eventful and formative decades in Bob Dylan's storied career. Featuring interviews, archival photographs, reproductions of handwritten song lyrics, plus other rare materials drawn from collectors around the world, this is a piece of rock and roll history. The scrapbook covers a pivotal period in the songwriter's life, including his arrival in New York in 1961 and his emergence as one of the most distinctive voices of his time with songs like "Blowin' in the Wind" and "Like a Rolling Stone" - handwritten lyrics to both of which are included as removable facsimiles. Also integrated into the book are nearly thirty other interactive features, among them promotional stickers for Don't Look Back, the program from Dylan's first concert at Carnegie Chapter Hall, and music critic Robert Shelton's notes from Dylan's "electric performance" at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
