Sign on the Window isn't the Bob Dylan podcast you need, but it's definitely the one that you want! Each week we select a Dylan song at random, live with the song for a week (or two) and then get together to discuss. This week we celebrate its fiftieth anniversary, by lucky accident tbh, 1970's infamous Self Portrait

We talk context (3:00), baggage or lack thereof with this record (8:00), what makes a bad album segueing directly into the record (17:00). For song beats, see below. We recommend Terminator, Teebs and Ken Burns' Country Music (1:09:00) and pick our next episode (1:16:00).

  • All the Tired Horses (25:00)
  • Alberta #1 and #2 (29:30)
  • I Forgot More Than You'll Ever Know (30:30)
  • Days of '49 (33:00)
  • Early Mornin' Rain (34:00)
  • Little Sadie/In Search of Little Sadie (34:20)
  • Let It Be Me (35:35)
  • Woogie Boogie (36:00)
  • Belle Isle (37:15)
  • Living the Blues (39:15)
  • Isle of Wight cuts: Rolling Stone, Quinn, Minstrel Boy, She Belongs to Me (40:00)
  • Copper Kettle (43:00)
  • Gotta Travel On (45:30)
  • Blue Moon (46:30)
  • The Boxer (49:30)
  • Take Me As I Am & Take a Message to Mary (54:10)

  • Wigwam (59:00)

As always, full show notes at our website. You can also follow along with our weekly real-time Spotify playlist – See That My Playlist is Kept Clean – (we didn't do a playlist this week because we have a whole album to listen to, duh) – and join the conversation on the usual suspects: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram.

For as little as one dollar you get early access to every episode we do as soon as they're edited (and a dedicated feed just for you) and exclusive content that'll only ever be on Patreon. Thanks!
