My book Pledging My Time: Conversations with Bob Dylan Band Members is officially out today!!!

A short(ish) thread…

[Ray Padgett @rayfp]

First “Million Miles” since 2014 tonight in Germany. Great pull.

A postscript to my piece about Bob Dylan's only show in Córdoba—a detailed insider account that appeared in Argentinian newspapers of Dylan boxing at a local club in Buenos Aires.

The fine music writer & pioneering Dylan fanzine editor John Bauldie died 30 [!!] years ago today. Together we watched, and felt embarrassed by, Dylan live on Live Aid in 1985. Two years later we co-edited the 1st collection of his fanzine in book form, All Across The Telegraph.

Night three brings the tour's first Bob Dylan guitar solo, the return of "Blind Willie McTell," and a dramatic (in a bad way) conclusion

Now that’s how you design a record cover

Superb piece by @rayfp on Rolling Thunder '76 in the latest issue of @MOJOmagazine.

The off-stage antics sound as wild as the live performances.

@rayfp Made it to Pennsylvania! Thanks Ray!

Somehow no one mentions the most OBVIOUS answer

[New York Magazine @NYMag]

Could a musician ever win the Nobel Prize again after Bob Dylan’s win ten years ago? And if so, who? Music critics and analysts have some ideas: ‘It’s Don Henley.’ https://t.co/MwCsGdirWc

Just noticed Bob's about to hit his first 1 billion streams on "Knocking on Heaven's Door" !!

Two scene reports from night two of Bob Dylan's "Lights of Autumn" tour. More setlist surprises, plus photos, video clips, and a full tape.

@queerbobdylan Those look a lot like my first show spots! Just swap in southern MI for southern WI

[Ray Padgett @rayfp]

Love these near-solo piano performances. Glad they’re back.

Of course he immediately drops it the moment it finally got decent. No ERK tonight in Sweden.

Every time I hear a new cover of "Walls" I wonder, is this the greatest Tom Petty song ever?

[Ray Padgett @rayfp]

First of many Bob Dylan tour dispatches this fall! Tom Wilkins reports in on a very surprising opening night in Oslo. With recordings of "Tangled Up in Blue" (with two new verses) and Bob's first-ever cover of Guy Clark's "Dublin Blues"
