A very sick dog set RWB back many hours today, but, one big pointless vet bill later, she seems to have made herself all better.

This Sunday’s mp3 is something I heard for the first time very recently — it’s Bob in Dublin, Ireland, in 1995 performing one of his most squarely declarative gospel songs, In the Garden, with a guest appearance by none other than Carole King on piano.

And if that’s not odd enough: from near the end of the same gig, this is Real Real Gone, a song written by Van Morrison, being performed by Bob and the band with Van Morrison himself and, for good measure, Elvis Costello also guesting on vocals, and apparently Carole King again. It’s a big mess but an amusing one. It starts off with Dylan, returning to the stage after the encore, saying, “You know these guys, right?”
