The train style on four tracks from Dylan's first album

New York, NY (Columbia Studio A)November 20th and 22nd, 1961

These four tracks—"You're No Good," "Pretty Peggy-O," "Gospel Plow," and "Freight Train Blues"—demonstrate Dylan's train style, which is not nearly as virtuosic as Sonny Terry's (audio ex. 7.3), but does show his penchant for rock 'n' roll propulsion, even in traditional numbers.
