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

Slow Train Coming is the nineteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on August 20, 1979 by Columbia Records. It was the artist’s first effort since becoming a born-again Christian, and all of the songs either express his strong personal faith, or stress the importance of Christian teachings and philosophy. The evangelical nature of the record alienated many of Dylan’s existing fans; at the same time, many Christians were drawn into his fan base. Slow Train Coming was listed at #16 in the 2001 book CCM Presents: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music.

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