This episode continues our intermittent series featuring a single Dylan song and today's episode explores one of Dylan’s great narrative songs: "Simple Twist of Fate." You'll hear studio and live performances of “Simple Twist of Fate” by both Dylan -- some with interesting lyric variations -- and fellow travelers and a special medley of 30 different cover versions of the song. The weekly news segment “20 Pounds of Headlines” tells you about the conclusion of Dylan's latest leg of his tour and also updates you on the auction of the ionic original of a 2021 studio recording of Blowin' in the Wind...and shares news about an upcoming auction of an extremely rare and collectible version of THE FREEWHEELIN' BOB DYLAN (1963).
