No Comments on Ep. #1152: Ray Padgett on Bob Dylan’s ‘The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings’

Ray Padgett returns to discuss Bob Dylan’s The Rolling Thunder Revue: The 1976 Live Recordings, his role as a respected Dylan scholar, exactly why we are receiving a 39 CD Dylan box set in 2026, comparing the two distinctive legs of the Rolling Thunder Revue Tour and why the 1976 edition has clearly gotten a bad rap, how Dylan’s personal life may have informed his mood and behaviour on this tour, why he surprised his bandmates and fans so much back then, the possible influence that Bruce Springsteen and punk had on Dylan, some of this set’s key and most memorable performances, why the set doesn’t include any footage from this well-documented tour, Ray’s Rolling Thunder ’76 Day by Day zine, other future plans, and much more.

Post date July 23, 2026

Robyn Hitchcock is here to discuss his new memoir, Stranded in the Future, and his new album, The Confuser, surreal song and prose writing, being haunted by lifelong muses, a fear of being boring, pondering parenting and figuring yourself out, how attending an all-boys school impacts the empathy you have for people of other genders, why aliens gravitate towards other aliens like Bob Dylan and Syd Barrett, depicting one’s own transcendent dreams and trips, celebrating the past, nostalgia, and sentimentality, a nod to Nick Lowe, loving trams and trolley cars, writing books on your phone, upcoming events, other future plans, and much more.

Post date March 10, 2026

Bill Frisell is here to discuss his new sextet record, In My Dreams, the different American and European cities he has lived in over the years and how they might inform his musical practice, his 75^th birthday and the March 2026 tour dates that mark the occasion, a dream about music and its possibilities that he had 30 years ago and is still processing, the lessons mistakes teach us, how film noir scores and the work of Alfred Hitchcock film composer Bernard Hermann may have found their way to In My Dreams, the time he saw Bob Dylan and the Hawks in 1966 and why Dylan might be into Bill’s latest record, what inspired him to put together the In My Dreams sextet, future plans, and much more.
