No Direction Home

The great day finally arrived. Yesterday Martin Scorsese’s new documentary was released here in Australia: No Direction Home: Bob Dylan. It’s a superb, sensitive, compelling, humorous film, with stacks of rare footage, interviews, and remarkable live performances (including previously-unreleased versions of my two favourite songs: “Desolation Row” and “Visions of Johanna”).

If you’re interesting in Bob Dylan, or folk music, or rock and roll, or Joan Baez, or Allen Ginsberg, or the sixties.... then you gotta see this film. And for those of you who, like me, simply can’t get enough of Dylan’s music, the soundtrack is now also available.
