Bob Dylan: Changing Times - 1979, Slow Train Coming

Logo for Bob Dylan: Changing Times - 1979, Slow Train Coming

John Wilson presents Bob Dylan's 1979's Gospel-tinged album Slow Train Coming. In 1979 Bob Dylan once again marked the end of a decade by making some major changes in his life and career. He embraced Christianity, spent several months in Bible School and recorded a Gospel album, Slow Train Coming. To the frustration of some of his fans, subsequent concerts were all-Gospel events, and Dylan refused to play any of his old material, tending to give sermons between songs.
