That Thin, Wild Mercury Sound: Dylan, Nashville, and the Making of Blonde on Blonde

<DIV><I>That Thin, Wild Mercury Sound </I>is the definitive treatment of Bob Dylanâ€™s magnum opus, <I>Blonde on Blonde</I>, not only providing the most extensive account of the sessions that produced the trailblazing album, but also setting the record straight on much of the misinformation that has surrounded the story of how the masterpiece came to be made. Including many new details and eyewitness accounts never before published, as well as keen insight into the Nashville cats who helped Dylan reach rare artistic heights, it explores the lasting impact of rockâ€™s first double album. Based on exhaustive research and in-depth interviews with the producer, the session musicians, studio personnel, management personnel, and others, Daryl Sanders chronicles the road that took Dylan from New York to NashvilleÂ in search of â€œthat thin, wild mercury sound.â€ As Dylan told <I>Playboy </I>in 1978, the closest he ever came to capturing that sound wasÂ during the <I>Blonde on Blonde </I>sessions, where the voice of a generation was backed by musicians of the highest order.<BR /> Â </DIV>
