"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to ensure the survival and success of liberty." —John F. Kennedy

"I've written a whole bunch of songs, so I can't say I didn't get to do what I wanted to do."
-Bob Dylan, 1995

You know that great Dylan tune "Things Have Changed"? He didn't write that about New Pony! Updates and e-mail responses have been a little slow. My apologies to site visitors; I spend far too much time working for my employer and going to class, and far too little reading up on all the latest Dylan news and sharing it with you. I hope that 2007 allows me to spend more time on New Pony!
I am still planning to update the timeline for 21st century, to post Big Pink and other off-map places to the Walkin' New York tour, to repair the Reader Survey, which is temporarily off-line, and share more results of the survey.
Since much of the Dylan news is reported through the media, I have a section on this page called Press Notes, where you can find recent information and scans of Dylan in magazines, newspapers, television, and all other forms of media. This will replace the Stories in the Press section, which will be maintained as a useful archive of nearly five years of Dylan in the news.
As always, your comments and corrections are welcome. I incorporate reader suggestions whenever possible, so don't hesitate to send me an

Bob Dylan and His Band are currently on break and will resume touring in February in Mexico. Check Bob Dates for details and updates.

Ace Records will release the Theme Time Radio Hour With Your Host Bob Dylan compilation in late February/early March. It will feature 50 songs from Dylan's weekly broadcast on satellite radio.

Columbia is gearing up to release a 3-CD Dylan retrospective album featuring 51 of his best songs. It will be released in October 2007 and succinctly titled Dylan. On the official site, Columbia sys the album to be totally fan-focussed and they are inviting fans to submit their Dylan anecdotes at www.dylan07.com, where you will also find trailers, photos, and other fun stuff related to the upcoming release.

"Hucks Tune" is a new song Dylan recorded for the Lucky You soundtrack, released in April. View the album on the offical Sony site.

Dylan won two Grammy Awards in 2007: for Contemporary Folk/Americana Album for Modern Times and for Solo Rock Vocal Performance for "Someday Baby."

Dylan's first album in five years, Modern Times, was released in September. Read about it on bobdylan.com.

Press Notes August 2006 The August 21st Rolling Stone features Dylan on the cover, accompanied by an interview with Jonathan Lethem, "The Modern Times of Bob Dylan: A Legend Comes to Grips With His Iconic Status. The legend comes to grips with his iconic status; an intimate conversation prior to the release of the new Modern Times." I hope to have scans posted soon. April 2006 Q magazine's April 2006 issue includes a Dylan Special: "40 Years of Genius: Bob Dylan with 25 pages devoted to the man, including a piece on the Rolling Thunder phenomenom and "50 Cult Dylan Classics." The April 30th New York Times features an article about Dylan's DJ gig with satellite radio: "It's All Right, Ma: Bob Dylan Turns D.J." by Bob Dylan (because the article includes his radio of his commentary, the Times gave Dylan the byline.) February 2006 The February 2006 Acoustic Guitar World featured a Dylan cover story about Dylan: "His Most Revealing Interview! Bob Dylan Shares His Songwriting Secrets." It is actually a reprint of a 2004 interview with Robert Hilburn. The issue also includes a "Bob Dylan Lesson: Learn to play some of Dylan's greatest songs, and discover just how underrated a guitarist he is." The photos alone make this issue well-worth the $5.99 cover price. Click to view scans. Click for archived Press Notes
