Up till now i've been using the old typed songbook that runs till Street Legal if i had to play more than a few Dylan songs.With a Dylan festival coming up where i live i think i might need something more substantial. I've seen a few books on offer and i'm not sure. Main thing would be easy to read, not too bulky for a music stand, and not having to put a brick to keep it open. No need for chords but with accurate lyrics. Some time ago i saw Neil Young's songbook, split up in 3 different books, so all manageable. Is there anything like that on the market? I've been getting the lyrics of the BD website. I would get by with 100 songs, but would like to pick them.

here's everything you need.

Edit: noticed you don't need the chords. Official editions of lyrics are notoriously unreliable.

A nice PDF if anyone's interested, only has the studio album song lyrics though.

Look on Musicroom.com - they have nearly 500 books of sheet music etc for Bob Dylan.

They are are a reliable company, I've had several things from them.
