I'm loving it, JR. Perfect accompaniment to the lockdown. I imagine there's a few Bob Boffins already planning a book based on the images of American culture. And there must be a few folk delighted at getting a mention from the great one.

'Let Me Die In My Footsteps' from 1962:

The often excellent BBC Radio 6 Music late evening presenter, Gideon Coe, is hosting an interesting programme on Thursday evening. He's taking Bob's latest song, 'Murder Most Foul', and theming a programme around the various characters mentioned in the piece...

Could this be another new one from Bob?

Bob's at it again, entertaining our lockdown...'False Prophet'

Looks like a new LP on the way - 'Rough and Rowdy Ways' - Bob's having a different lockdown experience, it would seem.

Look forward to it, especially as it looks like it is his own writing and maybe he’ll lay off murdering ‘standards’ for while!

I like this track, cloughie. A lot better than the second of the pieces he released from what will henceforth be known as 'The Lockdown Tapes'.

How unlike Bob! Mind you, JR, I think Bob's done Billy a favour getting him a wee bit attention.

BBC 6 music is having a five-hour Dylan special from 9pm this evening - Gideon Coe's having a Dylan themed show tonight for his regular three hours, followed at Midnight with Gid hosting what is termed 'a listening party' as he plays the whole of the new record; and then 6 Music sends us Bob fans off to beddy-byes with Bob at the Free Trade Halls from the archives.

Many thanks for that, JC.
Will be listening to & recording the 5-hour Dylan special on BBC 6 music tonight.

Bob Dylan's 115th Dream is on right now...things don't get much better!

Kathryn Williams in Not Dark Yet - beautifully sparse phone version. "I've been down to the bottom of a whirlpool of lies". Haven't we all lately?

'My Own Version of You' from the new Bob record on now on the wireless - lovin' it!

I thought it was a great performance, gurney.
