Paul Williams is my favorite Dylan...Great article. Paul Williams is my favorite Dylan author and he was a major force in my diving deep into Dylan's catalogue when I was younger. He's like an excited and accessible tour guide that makes you want to go further and further down the river of Dylan. <br /><br />I remember his gushing praise of the solo piano take of "She's Your Lover Now". I was dying to get my hands on it. This was in the mid 90s and it wasn't easy to find these things back then. But when I did, I saw what he was talking about. THIS was Dylan at his absolute peak form, and this was performance unlike anything I'd ever heard. The stuff of goosebumps. No other writer has approached Dylan with this emphasis and I'm grateful for all his work.<br /><br />It's a shame he isn't around to hear the full 18CD version of these 1965-1966 sessions.
