We may be a Bob Dylan podcast, but we are fans of all kinds of music. 2024 was one of the best years in recent memory in terms of new music releases, so you know we had to share our favorites. In total, 25 different albums from this year are discussed, along with a handful of non-2024 albums that we particularly enjoyed this year. Jens also shared his thoughts on "A Complete Unknown" to kick off the conversation. Thank you for all your support in 2024. Big things are happening in 2025!   The Podcast: @nothingisrevealed Adam: @never.ending.dylan Jens: @dylan_ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.

An Album Deep Dive "When Bob Dylan—the patron saint of sneering, disaffected poets—announced he was releasing a collection of classic Christmas songs for charity, smirkers got smirkier: What, after all, is more absurd than a beloved iconoclast embracing the schmaltziest, most achingly commercial genre of all? It sounded insane. And it is insane, sort of..." On this episode the guys break down the behind the scenes details of Christmas In The Heart, while sharing their thoughts on the beloved Christmas record.    The Podcast: @nothingisrevealed Adam: @never.ending.dylan Jens: @dylan_ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.

A Conversation About Bob Dylan's Alternate Takes. Bob Dylan has never played a song the same way twice, whether in the studio or on the big stage. The Bootleg Series has made this abundantly clear. So, what if Dylan had released Take 5 of Visions of Johanna from The Cutting Edge? What if he had released only the New York sessions for Blood On The Tracks? Dylan's unparalleled output, especially early in his career, allows us to imagine how his albums could have sounded had he released an alternate take.  -Apple Music Alternate Takes Playlist: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/blame-it-on-a-simple-twist-of-fate/pl.u-AkAmvbyI2qbBkXd -Spotify Alternate Takes Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1xjnfgyXdLAwRihogZUVkX?si=aH-JyERORJinkzllsd7-aQ&pi=e-QOKtZg8NTBaq   The Podcast: @nothingisrevealed Adam: @never.ending.dylan (inactivated at the moment) Jens: @dylan_ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.
