  <description><![CDATA[An in-depth look at the creation of one of Bob Dylan's most celebrated albums, <em>Blood on the Tracks</em>.<p> In 1974 Bob Dylan wrote, recorded, reconsidered, and then re-recorded the best-selling studio album of his career. <em>Blood on the Tracks</em> was composed as Dylan's twelve-year marriage began to unravel, and songs like &quot;Tangled Up in Blue&quot; and &quot;Shelter from the Storm&quot; have become templates for multidimensional, adult songs of love and loss.<p> Yet the story behind the creation of this album has never been fully told; even the credits on the present-day album sleeve are inaccurate. Dylan recorded the album twice-once in New York City and again in Minneapolis, with a rag-tag gang of local musicians, quickly rewriting many of the songs in the process.<p> For <em>A Simple Twist of Fate</em>, the authors have interviewed the musicians and producers, industry insiders, and others, creating an engaging chronicle of how one musician channeled his pain and confusion into great art.</p></p></p>]]></description>

    <![CDATA[An in-depth look at the creation of one of Bob Dylan's most celebrated albums, <em>Blood on the Tracks</em>.<p> In 1974 Bob Dylan wrote, recorded, reconsidered, and then re-recorded the best-selling studio album of his career. <em>Blood on the Tracks</em> was composed as Dylan's twelve-year marriage began to unravel, and songs like &quot;Tangled Up in Blue&quot; and &quot;Shelter from the Storm&quot; have become templates for multidimensional, adult songs of love and loss.<p> Yet the story behind the creation of this album has never been fully told; even the credits on the present-day album sleeve are inaccurate. Dylan recorded the album twice-once in New York City and again in Minneapolis, with a rag-tag gang of local musicians, quickly rewriting many of the songs in the process.<p> For <em>A Simple Twist of Fate</em>, the authors have interviewed the musicians and producers, industry insiders, and others, creating an engaging chronicle of how one musician channeled his pain and confusion into great art.</p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[An in-depth, eyewitness account of the creation of one of Bob Dylan's most celebrated, anguished albums, written by the album's guitarist and an acclaimed journalist. <p> In 1974 Bob Dylan wrote, recorded, reconsidered, and then re-recorded Blood on the Tracks, and to this day, no one who hears it can avoid being blown away by its emotional power. Commonly referred to as &quot;the greatest break-up album of all time,&quot; it was written as Dylan's own twelve-year marriage began to painfully unravel. Songs like &quot;Tangled Up in Blue,&quot; &quot;Idiot Wind,&quot; and &quot;Shelter from the Storm&quot; have become the template for multidimensional, adult songs of love, longing, and loss. <p> Yet the full story behind the creation of this album has never been told. The authors have drawn upon first-hand information and interviews with the musicians, producers, industry insiders, as well as Dylan's friends, associates, and relatives. <em>A Simple Twist of Fate</em> is an engaging chronicle of how one artist transformed his personal pain and confusion into great art.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[An in-depth look at the creation of one of Bob Dylan's most celebrated albums, <em>Blood on the Tracks</em>.<p> In 1974 Bob Dylan wrote, recorded, reconsidered, and then re-recorded the best-selling studio album of his career. <em>Blood on the Tracks</em> was composed as Dylan's twelve-year marriage began to unravel, and songs like &quot;Tangled Up in Blue&quot; and &quot;Shelter from the Storm&quot; have become templates for multidimensional, adult songs of love and loss.<p> Yet the story behind the creation of this album has never been fully told; even the credits on the present-day album sleeve are inaccurate. Dylan recorded the album twice-once in New York City and again in Minneapolis, with a rag-tag gang of local musicians, quickly rewriting many of the songs in the process.<p> For <em>A Simple Twist of Fate</em>, the authors have interviewed the musicians and producers, industry insiders, and others, creating an engaging chronicle of how one musician channeled his pain and confusion into great art.</p></p></p>]]>
