The Old Man’s Back Again

From Six Degrees of Dylan - Audio Episodes · 5:54

Show by Six Songs. Five Connections. One Destination.

Scott Walker’s “The Old Man’s Back Again” begins a journey through beautiful songs with unsettled worlds inside them. Bowie interprets Walker, then supports Lou Reed; John Cale and Nico connect through their shared musical circles before Dylan’s writing leads us to “Like a Rolling Stone”. Colin separates documented collaborations from his own listening interpretations, tracing how a polished arrangement can leave a question open. Pause at each listening stop and hear the six recordings separately on Spotify.Listen to the six-song Spotify playlist.
