ISBN10: 1844138828, ISBN13: 9781844138821, [publisher: Century] Hardcover First Edition Book Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Century, London, 2005. Hard Cover. First / First. Book and Dust Jacket both in Fine condition. Donovan is revealed as one of the most original figures of the sixties, the first singer-songwriter to introduce poetry into pop songs, the first to write about drugs - and the first to be busted - and to use psychedelic artwork on his album covers. There are stories of his adventures with John Lennon , Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix. By 1968 Donovan was the hottest ticket on both sides of the Atlantic, but as the decade drew to a close he became disillusioned with the increasing pressures of superfame, and decided to drop out. This is a very nice copy. [hastings, ESUX, United Kingdom] [Publication Year: 2005]
