Bob Dylan släpper coverskiva

Bob Dylan ska spela in Frank Sinatra-låtar.

Bob Dylan har utannonserat ett nytt studioalbum och denna gång rör det sig om en coverskiva av låtar som framförts av Frank Sinatra. Skivan kommer att heta Shadows in the Night, och är Dylans första skiva sedan 2012 års Tempest som då fick strålande kritik. Skivan släpps den tredje februari på Columbia, och Bob Dylan har själv producerat skivan under sitt Jack Frost-alias.

I ett pressmedelande sade Dylan följande:

It was a real privilege to make this album. I’ve wanted to do something like this for a long time but was never brave enough to approach 30-piece complicated arrangements and refine them down for a five-piece band. That’s the key to all these performances. We knew these songs extremely well. It was all done live. Maybe one or two takes. No overdubbing. No vocal booths. No headphones. No separate tracking, and, for the most part, mixed as it was recorded. I don’t see myself as covering these songs in any way. They’ve been covered enough. Buried, as a matter a fact. What me and my band are basically doing is uncovering them. Lifting them out of the grave and bringing them into the light of day.
