Hello Dylan Fans,
Here is an exhaustive reference book on Bob Dylan - still in shrinkwrap. The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia comes with a CD-ROM for your computer that has a searchable PDF! This is a perfect Christmas gift for that Dylan fan that you know and love - or at least like. They can read about Dylan "going electric" or find out just why "Blonde On Blonde" is as indispensible as Jack Black indicates in "High Fidelity"

For your consideration today...
An original 1969 souvenier program from the musical HAIR. This book is in nice shape and is filled with photos and song lyrics from the production that had people believing, if only momentarily, that they could right the wrongs of the world by dancing naked and having, well, hair.
Look for more under the Umbrella.
