Another Side of Bob Dylan

Whether it was hanging out in the early 1960s Greenwich Village folk scene or driving through the heart of the South during the Civil Rights era or turning on the Beatles to marijuana--poet, tour manager, and promoter Victor Maymudes was there every step of the way with his charismatic and enigmatic friend Bob Dylan. Jacob Maymudes reads his late father's Beat-era, folk, rock-and-roll, and counterculture reminiscences--recorded in a frenzy in 2001 on 24 cassette tapes--with a youthful sense of wonder and discovery. Some of the most honest and touching passages are of Jacob recounting his own memories of being a teenaged boy spending a couple of 1990s summers playing video games on a tour bus with his father and his father's boss--a musician named Bob.
