Through Dylan's eyes and open mind, we see Greenwich Village, circa 1961, when he first arrives in Manhattan. Dylan's New York is a magical city of possibilities---smoky, nightlong parties; literary awakenings; transient loves and unbreakable friendships. Elegiac observations are punctuated by jabs of memories, penetrating and tough. With side trips to New Orleans, Woodstock, Minnesota and points west, [it's] an intimate and intensely personal recollection of extraordinary times." AudioFile says: "Only in the audiobook world could this comparison be made, but this wonderful production of Bob Dylan's CHRONICLES has some surprising similarities to Chuck Barris's 'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.' Sound blasphemous? Both are riffs on the curse of celebrity, both transcend high and low art, both challenge the memoir format, and both revel in the oddities of post-WWII Americana. (Dylan credits his early inspiration to the TV wrestler Gorgeous George.) Most strikingly, Sean Penn's beat reading shares a rhythm and a tone with both---his is an ideal voice for a reluctant pop hero desperately trying to put the genie back in the bottle." This abridgement has Penn's great Dylan vocal performance as an enhancement. "I'd come from a long ways off and had started a long ways down. But now destiny was about to manifest itself.
