Hit Story host Tim Tamashiro has a cold. So it's not possible to make an entire new episode of Hit Story for you this week. But how about a two-fer of past episodes? Tim really enjoyed making the Hit Stories of Bob Dylan's "The Times They Are a'Changin'" and Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" so here they are again (with a wheezy Tim stitching them together).  Thanks for your patience. More episodes of Hit Story will be available soon.
