Plus: We finally hear from Ted Cruz's dog. The shocking story of "He Hit Me (and It Felt Like a Kiss)." Lady Gaga protests. And then do the "Rubber Duck" with Bert & Ernie and friends.
"Love Sick"--great performance by Bob, the band and Soy Bomb. Didn't realize Bob plays lead guitar along w/ Larry Campbell during the song's break. Fantastic!
Greg, I would argue MODERN TIMES (2006) stands up w/ "Thunder on the Mountain", "When the Deal Goes Down" (perhaps the greatest song written about death and being there with a loved one for the "big moment"), "Working Man Blues #2", and "Nettie Moore".
I'm very familiar with that clip of Dylan on the Steve Allen show. I did a conference presentation on 'Hattie Carroll' in 2019, and I sometimes use it in my journalism classes since it's structured like a news story. First verse answers most of the five W and H questions; other verses follow inverted pyramid (although the lead is buried at the end, and he embellishes several details of the story).

Be sure to check out The Motels slamming cover of “He Hit Me (and It Felt Like a Kiss).”
slamming? hhhmmm
The Quarrymen do justice to Buddy's "That'll Be the Day". John's vocal is strong and love George's guitar solo.
true, was surprised the audio was pretty good

yeah, always shocked by the lead guitar here...for me Bob has never matched that album since

The only thing more fun that the Reggae Rubber Duckies song would be watching the puppeteers behind the tub when the tub when everyone joins in!
