Este libro incluye más de sesenta ensayos centrados en canciones de otros artistas, que van desde Stephen Foster hasta Elvis Costello, pasando por Hank Williams o Nina Simone. Dylan analiza lo que llama la trampa de las rimas fáciles, desglosa la forma en que una sola sílaba puede malograr una canción e incluso explica la relación entre el bluegrass y el heavy metal.
