126 – "Changing of the Guards"

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, it's 1978 in Oregon and Virginia and we talk "Changing of the Guards" in our first out-of-order podcast!

In this mega-sized episode (brought to you by Bob R. and dropped phone calls)

• Context (7:00)


• Kelly's Music Room (10:30)


• Versions & Personnel (16:00)


• Song Itself — featuring vibes, "I" and "she/her," medieval s**t, tarot cards, religion and Battlestar (21:00)
