Rockin' Dylan's birthday...
Shaun celebrates Bob's upcoming 85th birthday with some of the best Dylan rock covers, plus another chance to hear why he's Mark Knopfler's Rock God.
Bob Dylan is about to turn 85. Yes, you read that right.
As one of the most influential musicians and songwriters of the 20th century, Bob's been covered many times by rock artists - from Hendrix to the Stones to Rage Against The Machine. Shaun celebrates Bob's upcoming birthday with some of the best Dylan rock covers, and he's also giving you another chance to hear Mark Knopfler explain why he chose Bob as his ultimate Rock God.
Also - it's been a while, but Europe are back with new music. This year marks 40 years since they released 'The Final Countdown', but they aren't looking back right now... lead singer Joey Tempest will introduce the band's brand new single!
