December 10, 2004 NEW DYLAN VIDEO  (NO COVERS CONTENT)

From Joel Gilbert, Director and Producer:

I'm happy to tell you about my new documentary feature on Bob Dylan on DVD, called "Bob Dylan World Tours 1966-1974, Through the Camera of Barry Feinstein."  It was screened as a World Premiere event at Experience Music Project's "Bob Dylan's American Journey" in Seattle, Washington on November 19th.  Movie reviews and photos are on this website:  http://www.bobdylan66-74.com, or click the videobox to learn more.

Here is the movie description:
Barry Feinstein was the exclusive tour photographer on Bob Dylan and The Band's legendary 1966 and 1974 World Tours. In this documentary feature film, Feinstein and Director Joel Gilbert chronicle these epic Bob Dylan tours, featuring over 150 selections of Feinstein's finest portraits - most revealed for the first time - in this extraordinary document of Bob Dylan and rock music history.

For the years in between, Gilbert visits Woodstock and Greenwich Village, New York, where he investigates Dylan's secluded life before his return to the road in 1974. Gilbert recreates the singer-songwriter's 1966 motorcycle accident, pays a visit to Big Pink, examines Dylan's first encounter with The Beatles, and even confronts fanatic Dylanologist A.J. Weberman. Interviews with filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker, rock journalism godfather Al Aronowitz, Band drummer Mickey Jones and surprise guests help reveal Bob Dylan's hidden history behind Feinstein's astonishing images'

Now taking orders for shipping in time for the holidays.
Music is by Highway 61 Revisited, includes instrumental compositions, and Handsome Molly (Traditional).

November 22, 2004  MORE MICHEL MONTECROSSA
I have added 4 Michel Montecrossa CDs that were released during 2004, 2 in VOCALS and 2 in  NEAR MISSES.  Apparently I have been dropped from Mira-Sound's press and promotional list,  as I no longer receive press releases or promotional material.  So I don't have any of these, nor can I find them for sale at any of the normal retailers that carry the older titles (other than Empire Burlesque # at Amazon-UK for £20+!)  If anyone has them, I could use: a) catalog numbers, b) play times, c) are the EB# tracks new recordings or repeats from the earlier CDs? and d) Any retail sources.  Contact me here.  Note: I am only requesting information, I am not searching for the CDs at this time.

April 23, 2004  DYLAN COUNTRY
Due for release May 18 (US) is “Dylan Country,” a collection of archival country covers.
Album Description: There was a time when country fans didn’t listen to rock music and rock fans didn’t listen to country. It was the way of the world and there was little room for exception. Today, every form borrows from those who came before. Rappers sample jazz and rock, while electronic artists re-envision Elvis. So it’s no wonder that a number of respected country artists would tackle the genius that is Bob Dylan. This disc compiles the greatest countrified versions of Dylan ever recorded. 
Includes an out-of-print Buck Owens song, plus collectible tracks by Emmylou Harris, Earl Scruggs with Bob Dylan, Country Gentleman and Norman Blake. Liner notes by award-winning writer Eddie Gorodetsky, who appeared in the Dylan film Masked And Anonymous.

Pre-order from:...amazon.com

1.  Nashville Skyline Rag - Earl Scruggs (with Bob Dylan)
2.  Girl From The North Country - Country Gentlemen
3.  Don't Think Twice, It's Alright - Waylon Jennings
4.  It Ain't Me Babe - Johnny Cash
5.  I'll Be Your Baby Tonight - Hank Williams, Jr.
6.  Love Minus Zero/No Limit - Buck Owens
7.  You Ain't Goin' Nowhere - The Byrds
8.  If Not For You - Glen Campbell
9.  Subterranean Homesick Blues - Tim O'Brien
10.  Restless Farewell - Peter Ostroushko & Norman Blake
11.  Heartland - Willie Nelson
12.  When I Paint My Masterpiece - Emmylou Harris
13.  Sign On The Window - Jennifer Warnes
14.  One Too Many Mornings - Jerry Jeff Walker
15.  Boots Of Spanish Leather - Nanci Griffith
16.  Forever Young - Kitty Wells

April 14, 2004  UNOFFICIAL ALBUMS
I have added a few "unofficial" single artist compilations to the  UNOFFICIAL  page.  These are albums that are documented elsewhere on the internet, and have standardized artwork.  In most cases these have been available via free trading or treed by fan groups.  Until now I have listed only unofficial  various  artist compilations.  Newly added are:
BUCKETS OF BROWN: SONGS OF BOB DYLAN SUNG BY GREG BROWN
ULF LUNDELL:  BOB DYLAN INTERPRETED
OLA MAGNELL:  BOB DYLAN INTERPRETED
NEIL DOES BOB:  NEIL YOUNG COVERS DYLAN
Several other compilations circulate, but I have not been able to find any available artwork.  These include Giant Sand Plays Dylan & Young, Gerry Garcia Plays Dylan, and another Grateful Dead Does Dylan compilation, different than those already in the VOCALS  section.  Several titles already listed in the VOCALS section should rightly be listed here, but for now I am not going to move them.
I have also added the 6 CD-Rs in Tokyo Bob's BOOTLEG SERIES.  Although these are "not for sale" CDRs, they are freely traded among collectors.  Since they are shown on the artist's website, I consider them semi-official so have added them in the VOCALS section with the official Tokyo Bob CDs.
