He has written and published lyrics, artwork and memoirs in 11 books and three of his songs have been made into children's books. He has done numerous collaborations, appearances and tribute albums. The albums Planet Waves and Before the Flood were initially released on Asylum Records; reissues of those two and all others were on Columbia Records.
Dylan has won many awards for his songwriting and performances, including the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature for his entire body of work.[1] For a list of these accolades, see List of Bob Dylan awards.
