Description

In 1975, Bob Dylan embarked on a Rolling Thunder Revue tour, a multimedia spectacle that blended elements of happenings and traveling circuses. This journey was sparked by the arrest of boxer Huracán Carter, allegedly due to racist motives, and began with impromptu concerts in small venues across New England. As the band performed, a diverse group of musicians, poets, and performers took to the stage, reinventing American musical traditions and pushing the boundaries of art. The tour was marked by improvisational performances, poetic readings, and eclectic costumes. Sam Shepard, who joined the tour as a writer, began documenting his experiences in a diary that would eventually become this book. This account blends Shepard's observations with the vibrant atmosphere of the Rolling Thunder Revue, weaving together elements of Jewish, Mexican, and English cultures, cowboy slang, and Catholic imagery with blues influences.
