Tune in tonight at 7pm Atlantic for Tonight’s Listening Party Album: Street-Legal
(6pm Eastern, 5pm Central, 3pm Pacific, 11pm London, 10am Sydney)

Street-Legal is the eighteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on June 15, 1978 by Columbia Records. The album was a serious musical departure for Dylan, who uses a large pop-rock band—complete with female backing vocalists—for the first time.

Following the twin successes of Blood on the Tracks and Desire, Street-Legal was another gold record for Dylan, but it peaked at only #11 on the US Billboard charts, making it his first studio album to miss the US Top 10 since 1964. However, it became his best-selling studio album in the UK, reaching #2 on the charts (his highest position in eight years) and achieving platinum status with 300,000 copies sold (the only other Dylan album to do this was The Essential Bob Dylan).

We’ve also got a special treat lined up for tomorrow!  Bob might not be at the cerimony for his Nobel tomorrow, but he’s no stranger to Sweden, so we’re going to play a few of his best concerts in Nobel-land!
