MUSIC FROM BIG PINK
It was 1967--the Summer of Love. Bob
Dylan and five other musicians (later known as The Band) met in a
bungalow in Woodstock, New York, and wrote and produced music that
ignored the psychedelic sounds of the time, songs that would eventually
become known simply as "The Basement Tapes." The group mined
the history of American music and their own talents to produce legendary
tracks that were bootleg issues before appearing in official release.That is the alchemy that was practiced
in the Basement Tapes laboratory, and "in that alchemy,"
Marcus writes, "is an undiscovered country, like the purloined
letter hiding in plain sight." Marcus explores this music and the
cauldron of the American experience in which it was formed in a book
that illuminates America, then and now.
