Bob Dylan and Blood on the Tracks cover (Ram's Horn Music)Tangled Points of View

That’s because of its first-rate bill of artists, three of whom—singer/songwriters Jen Chapin and Richard Barone and guitarist Alex DeGrassi—join host John Schaefer with a preview.

The series -- which coincides with “Better Hearing and Speech Month” -- looks at issues like New York’s noisiest neighborhoods, the latest research on iPods and hearing loss, and what happens when noise becomes a musical ingredient.
