Bob Dylan Season..BBC4

[michele cryer]

A bit late to be advertising this on here, as it's nearly over...but there's still 2 programmes to go...

One tonight 'Highway 61'...looking at the highway which inspired Dylan's album of the same name...

And tomorrow evening there's a concert tribute to Bob Dylan...

Plus watch out for repeats of the other Dylan related Arena progs that have been shown on BBC4 this week, such as : Dylan Legends, Dylan Covers, Dylan in the Madhouse, and Don't Look Back, The Last Waltz.

There was a 2 part interview with Dylan on BBC2, Monday and Tuesday nights, 'Down the Highway' by Martin Scorsese, which were absolutely fantastic...

I believe a DVD featuring the full interview and extras was released in the UK a week before the programmes were aired...also the CD of the music from the documentaries is also now available..called, of course, 'Down The Highway'... ;D

Yo, yeah caught some of this. Pretty interesting on the times as well, and the whole folk thing of the period with some interesting stuff around the communists and Pete Segar.

Cotty wants to pick up that DVD at some point, so reckon be great to sit down and watch the whole thing in full together hey wot.
