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 talk only hobo's with "Only a Hobo"

  • Context + "Poor Miner's Farewell," "Tramp on the Street" and "Railroading on the Great Divide" (4:00)
  • Our versions, including Broadside, the McKenzie Tapes, The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3, Vol. 9 and Vol.10 (13:00)
  • Song itself (30:45)
  • What is a hobo? (35:00)
  • Kelly's conception of his sound (42:00)
  • Does this song work in 2020? (48:20)
  • Playlist (52:00)
  • Recommendations (1:10:30)
  • Endings (1:23:30)
