Just read a very positive review in Germany's leading weekly, Der Spiegel. They stress many of the things that have been mentioned in this thread: the lack of gossip, of emphasis on celebrity, the 'fascinating insights' into the mind of a songwriter. They also print an excerpt on a period when he was touring with Tom Petty and later with The Grateful Dead. He talks about how he 're-connected' to his own songs again - though I must say it doesn't become clear to me what exactly happened, just that he had the feeling something happened. Ah well, maybe it's me. I've never understood his songs (though I like quite a few of them, sung by others), and never liked his voice. A matter of taste.
