Description
• Never heard before CD compilation, dedicated to the charismatic musician and author who revolutionized folk and rock music like no other in the ’60s and became the worldwide figurehead of a cultural upheaval in youth culture: Bob Dylan.
• • Compiled with expertise and passion by French producer Philippe Le Bras for Bear Family Records®, this anthology features original recordings, mostly from the mid-1960s.
• • Dylan-inspired artists such as Dion, Lou Reed, Bobby Darin, Leon Russell, David Crosby, Boz Scaggs, Bob Seger, Johnny Winter, David Blue and many others try to catch up with their mentor and colleague and produce songs in the idiom he pioneered.
• • Not a single Dylan song on this album, and yet the master can be heard throughout!
• • Foreword by the late John Sinclair, essays by Iggy Pop and Elliott Murphy, extensive liner notes and numerous rare illustrations and memorabilia in the 48-page booklet.
• • Careful re-mastering by Peer Meyer.
