Newport, Seeger, Dylan, and the Night That Split the Sixties, Dylan tweeting praise for his book, being from Dylan’s world, why the Newport Folk Festival became a generational nexus point for music in the 1960s, his access to unreleased Newport audio and film footage by the likes of Murray Lerner, what he makes of A Complete Unknown’s depictions of real people and events, how it’s more brooding than the comical Dylan and Joan Baez really were, his new book about Jellyroll Morton, other future plans, and much more.
