Bob turns 80!

This round of the show is a hard departure from our normal programming, so I hope all of the old time and 78 enthusiasts will bear with us this week! In celebration of his upcoming 80th birthday, we’ll be exploring the catalogue of Bob Dylan through the lens and voices of artists spanning the decades. Bob has been a big inspiration to many, including myself. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Bob..
