109 – "Dink's Song"

from Sign on the Window Hosted by Daniel

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 dive into 1961's "Dink's Song" In lieu of everything happening in the world, we've been super-sizing episodes and this is no different. In this episode, we discuss: Initial Thoughts and Kelly plays the song for us (3:00) Context (10:00) "Dink's Song" — including versions from Josh White, Dave Van Ronk, Caroline Hester, Odetta, and Gabriel Rios (20:30) Does this song work? (40:00) Playlist — including asides on STP, Ru Paul, Vitimin C, and Caroline Hester (45:00) Recommendations (1:10:30) Endings (1:23:30) 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 – or just listen to this episode's playlist 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!
