Seven Songs for the Week #180 - 16th Sep 26

Apple launched a load of phones and stuff last week, and during the presentation this song popped up. You’d miss the Beatles Boys.

Heard on the radio. Dreamy.

Listened to this album this week. Good for when you are in a specific mood. DB at his very DB-ness.

Barrelled through the Netflix show The Burroughs. Enjoyable Spielberg-y stuff, very well acted. There’s no season two coming, it’s been cancelled. This song popped up in an episode.

I never head Black and Blue until last year, and now I very much love it. Picked up the 2025 box set for a reasonable €60. Would recommend.

Went to a live celebration of the 1972 Bright Phoebus record last week. A great evening which sent me back to the record and this song in particular.

I don’t think I’m a big Dylan fan, however I have a bunch of his records, a few of the Bootleg Series and have seen him live often. So maybe I am. Still though, a 39 CD Live in 1976 box set was announced this week and I know I would never listen to such a thing - that’s for the real big Dylan fans. Every few weeks I’ll pull an unknown disc from some collection I own and give it a spin. This track stood out, a prototype To Make You Feel My Love, with the title phrase sung in an atypical rolling melody.
