Jackie Hayden to talk Bob Dylan on Near FM
The Dylanologist and Hot Press legend will be waxing lyrical on the airwaves.
Dylan author and lecturer Jackie Hayden is set to join Stephen Egan's Roots Highway programme on Near fm 90.3 for a discussion entirely devoted to Bob Dylan.
Hayden will talk about his recent e-book Love And Theft? Bob Dylan’s Celtic Odyssey and play relevant tracks from Dylan’s catalogue.
Tune in from 5.30pm on Saturday August 15.
Hayden’s book focuses on the influences of British and Irish music and musicians on Dylan’s life and work, and in it he also dismisses the claim that Dylan “went electric” at Newport in 1965.
