| Note | *What a treat this recording is!!! Ive had it on analog for years and even now scoring the CDR its been difficult to stop listening to. A 20 year old Bob Dylan in a radio studio being interviewed by Cynthia Gooding and playing tunes for a show called "Folksingers Choice". Dylan's 1st album would be coming out in the upcoming months, but almost every tune he plays on this show are covers of some of his influences, Howlin' Wolf, Hank Williams, Muddy Waters etc. The performance seems as though a young Bob Dylan was chilling in your living room drinking coffee as you enjoy casual conversation and he plays incredible music. The interview is pretty fun, listening to Bob's stories and thoughts, but the music is incredible, ranging from a gritty "Fixin to Die", to a moaning "Smokestack Lighting", a folksy "Lonesome Whistle Blues", to a beautiful and sad version of "Emmit Till". Its easy to see from this recording, wether you are a die hard Dylan fan or just Bob-curious, why he took the world by storm and even now almost 40 years later is still amazing critics. My favorite part of the show is Cynthia's last question about his hat asking him if he will still wear it when he's rich & famous. You can almost hear him blush when he says "ah, I'll never be rich & famous". A must have....
