“Bob Dylan: The Essential Interviews”—I’m not sure those are words that make the heart beat faster. Dylan nil a me alienum puto,” as Terence put it (or would have put it, if he had lived long enough): nothing having to do with Dylan can be alien to me. Still, as an interview subject, Dylan probably ranks a few notches above Elvis, who was one of the all-time worst. The trouble with Elvis was that he had very little to say; he was mainly concerned about sounding polite.
