Sign On The Window

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 travel to the house down in New Orleans they call "The House of the Risin' Sun." We talk context (3:15), the broadside ballad (7:00), as well as versions by Josh White, Texas Alexandar, the triangle of Dave Van Ronk/Bob Dylan/The Animals, Dolly Parton and alt-J (10:00). We close talking about the house, New Orleans, and taking bets on who is the stranger (35:30).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 – and join the conversation on Twitter, message us on Facebook, and like on Instagram.
