40 years since Bob Dylan released ‘Slow Train Coming’
Bob Dylan released his album “Slow Train Coming” 40 years ago Tuesday. It was the first album in what has been called his “Christian trilogy.”
Dylan was brought up in the Jewish faith, but embraced Christianity for a period of time beginning in 1978. He told the Washington Post about a vision and feeling he had one day in a hotel room, saying, "There was a presence in the room that couldn't have been anybody but Jesus."
