Each Friday I pick a song\u2013new, old, borrowed, blue\u2013that\u2019s been on my mind and in my ears, and write a short post about it.<\/p>\n

This is “Bob Dylan’s 49th Beard” by Jeff Tweedy:<\/p>\n

Jeff Tweedy — “Bob Dylan’s 49th Beard”<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ve been reading, thinking and talking about Bob Dylan quite a lot the past couple of weeks. On the one hand this song really doesn’t have much to do with Dylan, except the name check.\u00a0 On the other hand, you could imagine this song on, say, The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan<\/em>, or Bringing It All Back Home<\/em> (after all, he has his 115th dream on that one); and anyway, I is someone else.<\/a><\/p>\n
