...Dylan has never been big on interviews. For one thing, he doesn't like questions; for another, he doesn't need publicity. Since 1966, when he broke his neck in a motorcycle accident, he has avoided reporters almost entirely-much to the despair of millions of young people who idolize him as a primogenitor of the rock generation.

Legros's partner, Lessard, was a young Canadian with a handsome, honest face. On the road he was a cool con man too, but back home he became the frightened victim of Legros's infidelities and rages...
