Bob Dylan: Barack Obama, U.S. Grant And Civil War Ghosts

"Feel A Change Comin' On"

Bill Flanagan: "There is a certain sensibility, but I’m not sure how that connects?"

Bob Dylan: "It must be the Southern air. It’s filled with rambling ghosts and disturbed spirits. They’re all screaming and forlorning. It’s like they are caught in some weird web - some purgatory between heaven and hell and they can’t rest. They can’t live, and they can’t die. It’s like they were cut off in their prime, wanting to tell somebody something. It’s all over the place. There are war fields everywhere … a lot of times even in people’s backyards."

Bill Flanagan: (...)"But the album is all about love – love found, love lost, love remembered, love denied."

Bob Dylan: "Inspiration is hard to come by. You have to take it where you find it."
