時代洪流沖刷，仍未減其半分鋒芒。搖滾傳奇滾石樂團的60年。From the Sunday Times bestselling authorOn 12 July 1962, the Rollin' Stones performed their first-ever gig at London's Marquee jazz club. Down the line, a 'g' was added, a spark was lit and their destiny was sealed. No going back.These five white British kids set out to play the music of black America. They honed a style that bled bluesy undertones into dark insinuations of women, sex and drugs. Denounced as 'corruptors of youth' and 'messengers of the devil', they created some of the most thrilling music ever recorded. Now, their sound and attitude seem louder and more influential than ever. Elvis is dead and the Beatles are over, but Jagger and Richards bestride the world. The Stones may be gathering moss, but on they roll. Yet how did the ultimate anti-establishment misfits become the global brand we know today? Who were the casualties, and what are the forgotten legacies? Can the artist ever be truly divisible from the art? Lesley-Ann Jones's new histor

如夢似幻的文字搭配近150張精挑細選的照片，資深狄倫研究者馬世芳精心翻譯、考證，撰寫譯註三萬多字，並附贈專文導讀，帶領讀者進入狄倫幽深敏銳的思維，探索歌曲映射的廣袤世界。「人們往往把傳統和僵固混為一談。我們聽著老唱片，以為它是一件封在琥珀裡的物品，為我們懷舊的需求而存在。卻沒想過製作它需要付出的汗水、苦楚、憤怒與鮮血，也不去想它可能演變成什麼模樣。這張唱片充其量只是這群音樂人在那個當下的一幀快照。一幀快照也可以引人入勝、具有藝術價值，而正是時間長河中選擇的那個瞬間，使它得以不朽。」「音樂既屬於特定時代，又能超越時空。既能創造回憶，也構成了回憶本身……音樂是在時間裡建構的，猶如雕塑家或焊工在物理空間裡工作。音樂存在於時間之中，而得以超越時間，正如輪迴讓我們一次次重生，而得以超越生命。」──巴布．狄倫，《當代歌曲哲學》 《當代歌曲哲學》是巴布．狄倫自榮獲2016年諾貝爾文學獎以來首部發表的著作。 狄倫從2010年開始撰寫《當代歌曲哲學》，書中他展示了歌曲創作的藝術和工藝，有如一堂大師課程。 全書包含66篇文章，聚焦於其他音樂人的歌曲，從Stephen Foster到Elvis Costello，Hank Williams到Nina Simone。他剖析了他所謂的常見押韻的陷阱，分解一個單音節的增減如何影響一首歌，甚至闡釋藍草音樂與重金屬之間的關聯。這些文章以狄倫獨特的散文風格寫就而成，既神秘又變幻莫測，既辛酸又深刻，而且不時令人莞爾。雖然表面上文章的主題是音樂，但實際上更像是對人類狀況的冥想和反思。書中搭配約150張精挑細選的照片，與一系列如夢似幻的文字交織著，整本書有如一首史詩，為每首歌曲增添無比的魅力。 2020年，隨著Rough and Rowdy Ways專輯的發行，狄倫成為第一位在每個年代（自1960年代以來）都有專輯進入《告示牌》排行榜前40名的音樂人。《當代歌曲哲學》凝聚了多年來他對藝術的奉獻所積累的豐富知識和技能，如同他所做的一切，這部著作也是重大的藝術成就。★巴布．狄倫以本書展示歌曲創作的藝術和工藝，有如一堂大師課程。★資深狄倫研究者馬世芳精心翻譯、考證，撰寫譯註三萬多字及專文導讀。★隨書附《當代歌曲哲學》播放列表QR Code，讀者可邊讀邊聽，進入沉浸式的感官之旅。★如夢似幻的文字搭配近150張精挑細選的照片，並附贈馬世芳導讀別冊、巴布．狄倫
