Today we blast through some long-held misconceptions and talk about what makes a “bad” album. #SelfPortrait isn’t immune, but it’s hardly unlistenable! Link where you’d expect it #bobdylan #allthetiredhorses 🤳 🐎 https://ift.tt/37Pk9zK

Big day at Sign on the Window. It’s Daniel’s birthday. It’s “Like a Rolling Stone” day. It’s the start of Music Video Month. It’s seeing your twitter account is locked cause you stupidly changed the birthday to the day the podcast started so they think I’m a 2 year old Dylan fan 🙄#likearollingstone #sotwpodlives https://ift.tt/2FL25LP

All about that John B. Stetson hat🎩 . (“Stack a Lee” is out now! Also Bob is wearing a top hat right? I don’t know hats. I doubt 1993 required the synergy to promotionally allude to your cover of an American classic, but what do I know?!) . #bobdylan #stackalee #staggerlee #worldgonewrong #1993 #johnbstetson http://bit.ly/2Ib7orL

Sign on the Window isn't the Bob Dylan podcast you need, but it's definitely the one that you want! Each week we select a Dylan song at random, live with the song for a week (or two) and then get together to discuss. This week the masterful "Isis" from 1976's DESIRE.

In this episode, we talk about a few live versions (8:00), who is Isis (14:30) and break down the song itself – including marriage, lonely side-quest Bill, and performativity (17:30). This week we recommend (40:00) our playlist, RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2, and Colter Wall. Only 3 episodes left for Season 2!

Sign on the Window isn't the Bob Dylan podcast you need, but it's definitely the one that you want! Each week we select a Dylan song at random, live with the song for a week (or two) and then get together to discuss. This week 1966's "One of Us Must Know (Sooner or Later)."

We talk the evolution of the song from the Cutting Edge and how badass Paul Griffin is on piano and Bobby Gregg is on drums (9:15). This is a song that has many interpretations and we try to sort them out in real time (20:00). We recommend (44:00) Band Month, Björk, Bad Cop Bad Cop and Quiplash.

Mixed Up Confusion is our vehicle to discuss the culture that surrounds our weekly conversation about Bob Dylan. This is the first episode of November's Band Month!

Tonight, Night 1, features post-1978 tracks and 1968's masterpiece, Music From Big Pink.

Before the main event, Music From Big Pink (26:00): - "Tears of Rage" (33:00) - "To Kingdom Come" (37:40) - "In a Station" (38:30) - "Caledonia Mission" (40:45) - "The Weight" (42:30) - "We Can Talk" (50:00) - "Long Black Veil" (52:45) - "Chest Fever" (54:10) - "Lonesome Suzie" (59:00) - "This Wheel's on Fire" (1:01:05) - "I Shall Be Released" (1:05:15)

Night Two will feature the Band's final official album, Islands from 1977, and the inimitable The Band from 1969. See you then.
