Ep. 4, G: "Girl from the North Country," Bob Dylan

From the album The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

DJ comments: There's just something great about Dylan during the winter months.
I saw Bob a few years ago when he and Willie Nelson played baseball fields. I heard he had "burnt out" shows and good shows. I definitely saw the burn-out. They may as well have tied him upright to his keyboard -- you couldn't tell if he was singing or just trying to make noises into the microphone. Even though the show wasn't great, it was still Dylan. — BJ

Sorry that you caught a bad show. I have to admit that as much as I love the guy the best concert I've ever been to was his; the worst was his, too.

But since you guys seem to be fans (despite the bad trip), I thought I'd introduce you to my new novel, BLOOD ON THE TRACKS, which I think you and your listeners might enjoy.

It's a murder-mystery. But not just any rock superstar is knocking on heaven's door. The murdered rock legend is none other than Bob Dorian, an enigmatic, obtuse, inscrutable, well, you get the picture...

Suspects? Tons of them. The only problem is they're all characters in Bob's songs.

You can get a copy on Amazon.com or go "behind the tracks" at www.bloodonthetracksnovel.com to learn more about the book.
