Bob Dylan has announced that he has confirmed a second season of his award-winning radio show, 'Theme Time Radio Hour', which is broadcast on BBC 6 Music in the UK. The show, which has so far taken themes from 'The Bible' to 'Women's Names' to 'Dogs', has been a huge success so far, with Dylan exhausting his far-reaching musical knowledge and record collection, while interviewing some well-respected friends. This season is set to be little different, with NME.com reporting that Luke Wilson, John Cusack and Ellen Barkin are all set to guest on the show. The second season begins on 19 Sep.
Meanwhile, SonyBMG's Columbia have announced another Dylan catalogue cash in, with plans to release another Dylan DVD sometime soon, in addition to the already scheduled new Dylan best-of (which is different to the nine other Best Ofs because it's not called 'The Best Of' but 'His Greatest Songs', see). The new DVD is a mash of live performances from the Newport Folk Festival between 1963 and 1965 and, according to the press release, nearly 70% of the material has never before been previously released.
