"I'm sort of doing what I want to do. I mean, not sort of what I want to do, I am doing what I want to do. Or what I believe I was put here to do."A spokesperson for a generation, Bob Dylan gave a voice to the young, and his words were, and still are, truly revolutionary. Bob Dylan: Inspirations conveys the spirit of the man and the inspiration he has brought to millions through his poignant music. This intriguing book is composed entirely of Dylan's own words. Photos of Dylan and captivating images illustrate his words beautifully: * "When I get involved in something, I get totally involved. I don't just play around on the fringe." * "I went over my whole life. I went over my whole childhood. I didn't talk to anyone for a week after Elvis died. If it wasn't for Elvis and Hank Williams, I couldn't be doing what I do today." * "I don't call myself a poet because I don't like the word. I am a trapeze artist." The book is filled with over 50 striking photographs in a thoroughly modern design for a unique look. Pull it out when you need some inspiration from the master.

Rhythm is something you either have or don't have, but when you have it, you have it all over." -Elvis Presley * To commemorate the 30th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death on August 16, 2007, music historian Mike Evans introduces direct quotes from Presley-culled from the few rare interviews given during Presley's lifetime-and stylizes them amid a backdrop of black-and-white iconic images. Pairing Elvis's own words with a collection of striking rare photos, this is one of the only Presley titles essentially written by the King himself. * Of the myriad Elvis-related books available, this title is exceptionally different-presenting a reflective Presley through his own words.
