Love, Hate & Betrayal
BOB DYLAN
The inside story of Blood On The Tracks
* In 1975, Bob Dylan turned the crisis of a disintegrating relationship
with his wife Sara into one of rock’s most compelling dramas.
* In this month’s Uncut, we look at the making of Blood On The Tracks,
the album that Dylan created from the wreckage of his marriage and
which marked his artistic rebirth.
* “It’s one of the most truthful dissections of love gone wrong in rock
history,” writes Dylan expert and author Nick Hasted. “By turns
recriminatory, bitter and heartbroken. It is one of Dylan’s peaks, the
record where his genius and frail humanity meet.”
* For the full story of this remarkable record and the painful personal
circumstances that inspired it, don’t miss this month’s Uncut, on sale
now.
* Also in this issue, we feature Oscar-winning director of The Last
Picture Show on John Ford, one of the true immortals of American
cinema, talk to the former first lady of punk, Siouxsie Sioux about
sex, drugs and shock tactics, revisit Oliver Stone’s Vietnam movies and
laugh ourselves into a stupor with the hilarious Dolly Parton, report
on Neil Young playing with Paul McCartney at this year’s Bridge charity
concert and pay our respects to the great John Peel. Spider-Man
director Sam Raimi, meanwhile, picks his Top 10 horror films and we
review new albums and reissues from John Lennon, Nirvana, Mercury Rev,
The Grateful Dead and Eminem. On the movie front, we review and rate
hip new American comedy Garden State, Brian Wilson in the Beautiful
Dreamer documentary and do the same to the new DVD of cult classic
Memento.
* And to complete what we hope you’ll find an irresistible package, you
have a choice of two CDs – Tracks That Influenced Bob Dylan, featuring
music from Woody Guthrie, Chuck Berry, Hank Williams, Martin Carthy,
Blind Willie McTell and Bert Jansch, and Tracks Inspired By Bob Dylan,

Robyn Hitchcock with Gillian Welch and many more.
