About This Song
About "Blind Willie McTell (feat. James Walbourne)" by Chrissie Hynde
Over James Walbourne's skeletal guitar, Hynde inhabits Dylan's Blind Willie McTell with spectral grace. The song becomes a ghost story—a lantern swinging through the swamp of history. Her voice is a weary guide, tracing the outlines of forgotten saints and sinners with unflinching clarity.
