The Dylanologists

• Press Conference: The Dylanologists

  We put the call out on Instagram for you to ask us out of pocket Dylan questions—"What is your favorite gesture or habit of his that you adopted or would like to?" & "Where do you think Dylan’s career would’ve gone without his conversion to Christianity in 1978?" for example. We share our answers and insights, talk for way too long about Jakob Dylan, and discuss the new Dylan track with Barbara Streisand.    Where to find us online...

• What Is A Dylanologist?

  We are back! And we are mixing up the medicine yet again! This isn't a reintroduction or another rebrand—this is a realignment. On this episode we discuss the idea of "Dylanology" and what constitutes a "Dylanologist." We also give advice to new fans looking to get into Dylan's vast work, offer suggestions to lifelong Dylan fans regarding reevaluating his discography, discuss why we started Bob Dylan fan pages in the first place and more. We will still discuss songs from time to time, but we are getting back to our roots. I guess you could call it our Basement Tapes era.   Where to find us online...

• Not Dark Yet

  As the new millennium drew near, Bob Dylan was reinvigorated and ready to evolve yet again. However, and it may sound strange in retrospect, Dylan was in his mid-50's and seen as a has-been—a relic of a bygone era. What more could he possibly have to say? "Not Dark Yet" is one of the best songs on an album that is overflowing with strong material after many years of lackluster sales and declining interest in Dylan. "Time Out of Mind" was (and still is in many circles) seen as his return to form. It won him a Grammy. It cemented his place in the pantheon of rock gods. It introduced him and his body of work to a new generation of young people. It turns out Dylan was right: "It's not dark yet, but it's getting there..."   The Podcast: @TheDylanologistsPod Adam: @dylan.ology Jens: @dylan.ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.

• Tomorrow Is A Long Time

  "Tomorrow Is A Long Time" is one of those strange Bob Dylan songs that has never been officially released on a studio album (much like "Blind Willie McTell" and "Things Have Changed"), yet it is one of his best and most profound tunes. What makes it so alluring? How did it end up on a greatest hits compilation in the first place? Join us as we explore this enigmatic track.   The Podcast: @TheDylanologistsPod Adam: @dylan.ology Jens: @dylan.ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.

• Things Have Changed

  This week we are locked in tight, but very much in range as we discuss a recent Dylan masterpiece—Things Have Changed. This song from early 2000 showcases Dylan in the new millennium, rejuvenated after the success of "Time Out of Mind." Much has changed since his early days in New York City, but the common refrain throughout the song still rings true: people are crazy and times are strange...   The Podcast: @TheDylanologistsPod Adam: @dylan.ology Jens: @dylan.ologist Email us: [email protected]   Thank you, Thomas Francis (@thomasfrancisfolk), for the podcast soundtrack.
