Blood on the decks

Was pointed in the direction of this little gem from The Onion yesterday, which reminded me to post about the Dylan documentary series on 6Music at the mo.

Interesting concept, focusing on Dylan's change of persona at the end of each decade, 60s, 70s and 80s, with the albums Nashville Skyline, Slow Train Coming and Oh Mercy respectively. Three of my favourite Dylan albums in fact, and if you haven't heard 'em, do investigate. The programmes are available on iPlayer here.

  2. Nice one Scobes and Rosco both. I went through a bit of a Dylan geek phase a while back and downloaded what I believe to be almost everything he ever recorded, 50 odd albums in all including all the eighties stuff, live albums, all seven volumes of the bootleg series, the MTV unplugged and all that shit, so if there's anything anyone fancies I can happily upload it. A large portion of it is utter tripe.

    Have you got the 'Live at the Gaslight 1962' album that was released in 2005? Fuckin brilliant.
