Red River Shore – best song on Tell Tale Signs?

Of the dozen or so songs on Tell Tale Signs which were new to me, Red River Shore has had the biggest impact so far. Some of the new stuff, notably Huck’s Tune, is slight, but Red River Shore’s Dylan-ish gravitas demands microscopic scrutiny.

Dylan poetry blogger Larry Epstein agrees:

“Your readers might be interested in the latest post on The Dylan Watch. It's an interpretation of "Red River Shore.”
