Music Weekly podcast: Bob Dylan special

John Harris stands in for Alexis Petridis and Rosie Swash this week, and looks at the music of Bob Dylan as we approach his 70th birthday.

Emmy the Great and the Guardian's Stephen Moss join John in choosing their favourite tracks. See if you can guess which songs they pick before you hear the podcast.

Plus we hear why it's worth celebrating Dylan's 70th with James McGrath, cultural studies lecturer at Leeds Metropolitan University, and there's a reading by Michael Gray from his Bob Dylan Encyclopedia, now available as an audiobook.

Tell us about your favourite Dylan track and join the debate here. Or let us know your views on this or anything else on Twitter – @MusicWeeklyPod. We're on Facebook too!
