Episode 25: Lee's Real Music Radio Pod ▷ Dylan@80 (2021 Tribute)

He’s definitely one of the most covered musical artists of all time and it’s always interesting to hear other people do his songs but I’ve also peppered this show with some interesting comments by Dylan himself talking about his music from my favorite interviews with Bob (by Ed Bradley & Mary Travers) interspersed with the most interesting cover versions of Bob’s songs (Nina Simone, Bryan Ferry, Chrissie Hynde et al.) I’ve been listening to recently. (A big bonus mix of more great covers is on the way for my patrons!) *Image credit: detail from Dylan mural by Eduardo Kobra
