Local author Spencer Leigh’s Dylan book a hit

5th April 2021
Yesterday author Spencer Leigh, resident of Ainsdale, joined Cassie James on her Mighty Radio Mid-Morning Show to talk about his book Bob Dylan ‘Outlaw Blues’
Bob Dylan: Outlaw Blues is a brand new, bang up-to-date biography of Bob Dylan by acclaimed author, broadcaster and journalist Spencer Leigh.
Spencer has written over 30 books, all about music and musicians.
The timing of the publication is particularly apposite as it coincides neatly with the release of Dylan’s new album “Rough And Rowdy Ways” ,his first collection of new , self-written songs since his 2012 album “Tempest”.
You may ask yourself “Does the world need another biography of Bob Dylan ? Hasn’t Dylan been the subject of countless books , including those by such eminent writers as Anthony Scaduto, Robert Shelton, Howard Sounes, Richard Williams , Paul Williams, Michael Gray, Clinton Heylin, Greil Marcus and many more ? What more can be added to the already voluminous Dylan bibliography?”
Well, the response to those questions is that , yes, we do need a new biography of Bob Dylan as long as it is written by the fantastic Spence Leigh!
Tune in to Cassie James Mid-Morning Mighty Radio Show every day from 10am to midday to hear more fantastic local interviews and great music.
You can listen at 107.9FM, online, via the app, Alexa and other platforms.
