PAWcast: Professor Sean Wilentz Co-produced Bob Dylan’s New Bootleg Albums

from Princeton Alumni Weekly Podcasts · host Princeton Alumni Weekly

Princeton history professor Sean Wilentz has co-produced a new eight-CD box set of material by singer, songwriter, and Nobel laureate Bob Dylan. It’s called The Bootleg Series Number 18: Through the Open Window, 1956 to 1963, and it contains 165 tracks, many of them never heard before. It also contains 125 pages of liner notes written by Wilentz, who is a scholar of Bob Dylan and his music. Unusual for a history professor, Sean can also boast not one but two Grammy nominations, one of which was Dylan-related. Find the transcript for this podcast at paw.princeton.edu/pawcasts.
