Listen Up! is still stuck in Zimmerman’s world as we play songs about Bob, songs that poke fun at him, some tracks by those “next Bob Dylans” along with assorted Dylan-exploitation type tunes.

This week on Listen Up!, we play nothing but tunes written by a literate oddball outsider who somehow managed to cross over into the mainstream of the American psyche and become a permanent cultural identity. Hear the songs of Bob Dylan (whose birthday is Sunday May 24th) as sung and interpreted by others over the last 50 years.
