Listener comments!

  9:03am JoeChrisMorris:

Good show today Bob!
  9:16am Michael Hurlbert:

Wow! I remember Stingray. A British children's television program featuring marionettes that was related to other shows like Thunderbirds and Fireball XL5. Submarine adventures against evil. Outstanding!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:24am Sem Chumbo:

BB: Dave Bombay played a lot of stuff of the Beat Generation box set yesterday. Treasure! Wiggy...

Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:42am Sem Chumbo:

Always time for the Capt. and the Band.
  9:44am mrmucho:

Great arrangement on this tune, with the guitar drop out, etc.
  9:44am Pete from Boston (and NJ):

I get the feeling that if the sun had just gone supernova behind Bob, the description would have been just as calm and unfazed.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:10am Mike East:

so who exactly IS Mr Tambourine Man? A guy that plays tambourine as he rides around on a magic swirling ship? or is he actually a Tambourine Man the was that Spiderman is a Spider Man?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:14am Mike East:

*the way* (not was)
  10:32am Michael from the Left Coast:

There are a few early Hall and Oates tracks with guitar and mandolin (played by Darl Hall), including "Lady Rain"
  10:34am mrmucho:

TCM is playing 'Beauty and the Beast' later this month.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:37am Mike East:

I'll accept that explanation...makes sense
  10:40am Moe:

Of coarse only McGuinn played on mr tambourine man, the other players were hired guns... The byrds did sing on that cut however
  10:47am Moe:

Mr tambourine man... Dylan's connection?
Avatar 10:49am Jay/London:

Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:58am Mike East:

nice, Jay. We reheated the last of the batch that I had frozen just last week in celebration of the end of soup season!

Concerning Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man, Mr. Tambo was a stock character of minstrel shows:
