@Stevo4747 @penguinusa The legend is vast -- and complicated. Separating the music from the behavior is tricky but well worth the trip. Glad you're enjoying the book.

@ElenaLatici Wasn't aware Dylan was a sculptor. I should have paid more attention.

Bob Dylan's paintings and sculptures are stunning. I love the sculptures done with iron. If you can't afford them (I certainly can't) the could inspire you to create your own. Mixing iron and crystal could be beautiful. halcyongallery.com/exhibitions/49…

@AndyRichter Just be thankful this isn't an ABBA documentary. Imagine what your head would be like!

First my book "The Beatles," now "Led Zeppelin." Critics are calling them the "single most comprehensive." I'm thrilled that the astute @charlesrcross thinks so.

@tinasusman Wish Freddie Molina could narrate all my books. What a voice!

@BobSpitzNYC The shortest longest read—this book flies by, and Alfred Molina’s voice in the audio version is perfect.

If your curiosity has piqued about the creative process of the Beatles, may I humbly suggest the book that Rolling Stone called "definitive."

@MaxMcKinley4 @tinasusman Yeah, Freddie Molina really hit it out of the park with his Liverpool accent and love of the whole story.

@tinasusman @BobSpitzNYC Oh shit! Alfred Molina narrates the audio?! Time for a second copy. I just re-read this after your interview on Maron @BobSpitzNYC in prep for the film. It really, truly is brilliant.🙏

@JayZotos @marcmaron So great to see them enjoying each other and making music. It showed a lot of what I learned about how their interactions and camaraderie created that incredible music.

@BobSpitzNYC @marcmaron Read your book, really enjoyed it. What’s your takeaway from this Peter Jackson doc - does it change any of your views/assumptions?

@BobSpitzNYC Sir, I have just read the prologue to “Led Zeppelin…”. It may be the greatest intro to a Rock Biography ever! I thank you!
