Hi All,

Last week featured a little heavy metal during the LTYF time slot.  Not sure just what happened there.  But this week we were back on the air.  All Bob Dylan this morning.  I'm making my way through this--album by album line by line and, at the risk of sounding melodramatic, it's making my life a whole lot better.

The playlist went like this…

1) Most Likely You Go Your Way (And I'll Go Mine); Before the Flood

2) Tough Mama; Planet Waves
3) Please Mrs. Henry; The Basement Tapes
4) Highway 61 Revisited; Before the Flood

5) Highway 51; Bob Dylan
6) See That My Grave is Kept Clean; Bob Dylan
7) Talkin' New York; Bob Dylan

8) Shelter From the Storm; Hard Rain
9) Simple Twist of Fate; Blood on the Tracks
10) Leopard-Skin Pill Box Hat; Blonde on Blonde

11) Restless Farewell; The Times They are A-Changin'
12) Chimes of Freedom; Another Side of Bob Dylan
