0:03.1

My name is Ben Barrow and this is Bob Dylan album by album, a podcast that brings you an in-death look at each Bob Dylan studio recording record by record, except we are not doing that today.

0:15.2

Let me get us down just a second. First, though, a little bit of housekeeping.

0:18.1

I hope you're well and I hope all is good with you and your family. We are in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic at this time of record. I say that because

0:26.8

people listen to these sometimes months and years after they've come out. So it might sound

0:30.7

a bit strange if I'm going on about what's happening right now and people don't understand.

0:34.2

But I hope you're well and I hope all is good and you're not going too stir crazy.

1:24.3

bear that in mind and uh i'll get the episodes out as soon as possible.

1:29.0

This is also, as I mentioned, a slightly different episode.

1:31.3

It's not concentrating on an album.

1:33.0

Because I wanted to finish off this season of the podcast, taking a look at Bob's Christian period,

1:37.3

which is such a kind of fascinating period of this person's career.

1:41.4

And it's so unlike any other artist, which we've sort of become used to
