'Draws you so far into the story that you read it as a novel; as if you were present, meeting the characters on the stairway, peering at them in smoky coffee houses while they tune their guitars' Irish Times
A 4-way biography of Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, her sister Mimi and Richard Fariña and how a group of scruffy rebels turned folk music into the new rock and roll
In 1966 when Bob Dylan, aged twenty-five, disappeared from public view, he closed a chapter on one of the most fascinating stories in post-war cultural history. In just five years Dylan had become a spokesman for the counterculture; Greenwich Village the epicentre of youth style; and folk music - once played by earnest throwbacks - had been crossed with rock 'n' roll to form a thoughtful, literate, new musical style.
POSITIVELY 4th STREET relates just how folk became rock by looking at four young beatniks and their rise to fame: Bob Dylan, his part-time lover Joan Baez, her sister Mimi, and Mimi's husband, the writer Richard Fariña. It is that rare find - a new story to tell of a moment no one can forget.
