S01.13 Mark Howard's New Photo Book with Dylan, Joni, Neil, Willie and more.

They share their favorite entries from the book, the songs they’re listening to differently now, their views on Dylan’s writing style , and the ever-present question of who helped or worked with Bob on the project came up more than once.
