I first
heard this one on WXPN while I was driving on Columbus Blvd. one day in Philly;
not sure whether I was up there for XPNFest or for a Phillies game.
Unfortunately the ensuing album (Love,
Shelby) wasn’t nearly as good as its predecessor (I Am Shelby Lynne). This track, however, which was featured in Bridget Jones's Diary, grabbed me from
that first encounter and has yet to let go.

#179 Walk Between Raindrops – Donald Fagen (1982)
This is the
final track from one of my favorite albums of all time. Who knew being out in
the rain could be so much fun?
#178 Things Have Changed – Bob Dylan (2000)
It may or
may not mean anything that my two favorite Dylan-songs-performed-by-Dylan are
both from movies: “Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door” (from Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid) and this one (from Wonder Boys). Regardless of the movie
link, however, “people are crazy and times are strange” resonates just as well
now as it did 18 years ago.
