Just finished listening to the first installment of XM Radio's Deep Tracks' show "Theme Time Radio Hour" with Bob Dylan as DJ. I enjoyed it and will tune in again next week. My only disappointment was that he didn't play any of his own tunes, but then, I guess this would go against the humble Mr. Dylan's persona.

The theme today was "the weather" and he played everything from Judy Garland, The Staple Singers, Jimi Hendrix, Frank Sinatra and Stevie Wonder singing the Spanish version of "A Place in the Sun" (¡Sí, Se Puede!). He introduced each song with a little vignette and I was able to learn a little more about the legend and the music that has influenced his genius.

With news today that both XM Radio and Sirius radio had record 1st quarter losses, I, for one, am willing to pay my 10 bucks or so a month to listen to stuff like this.
