I try to recommend new releases the week they are released. Some albums slip by me, though, and deserve recognition once I’ve heard them. This is one of those albums. Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan (Honoring 50...

Hoy celebramos el cumpleaños 71 del gran Bob Dylan y para festejar que este ícono del folk sobrepasó el umbral de los 70 años, los muchachos de Paste armaron un playlist con 10 de las mejores canciones de Dylan que sobrepasan los 7 minutos de duración. 10. “Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie” (7:08) “Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie” quizá no califique técnicamente como una canción (la música por lo general ayuda), pero esta deslumbrante oda al pionero del folk que [...]

A behemoth at 73 songs. A lotta meh, a few stinkers by luminous egos and a few gems. Overall, kept thinking that the best person who covers Bob Dylan songs is Bob Dylan. I’d rather hear Dylan’s garbled, twisted rendition of “Like A Rolling Stone” than Jeff Beck’s bloated turd. Also, no Robyn Hitchcock? What a diss. The gems: Johnny Cash – “One Too Many Mornings” Not sure which Cash era this is from, but this cover is golden. A tough act [...]

Non esprimo preferenze tra una canzone di Bob Dylan nella versione di Rod Stewart e l'originale, lo so, sono uscito allo scoperto: non sono un grande fan di Dylan . Ho “Blonde and Blonde” e “Highway 61 Rivisited”, ovviamente. E “Bringing It All Back Home” e “Blood on the Tracks”. Chiunque apprezzi la musica possiede questi quattro album. Dylan mi interessa abbastanza per comprare The Bootleg Series 1-3 e quell'album live che adesso sappiamo non fu registrato alla Royal Alber Hall. Le recensioni di "Time Out of Mind" e "Love and Theft" mi [...]

The lengthy tribute features Dylan covers by Adele, Angelique Kidjo, Flogging Molly, The Gaslight Anthem, K'naan, Mariachi El Bronx, My Chemical [...]

“Una cosa con la que he sido bendecido es con un enorme sentido de auto-confianza,” bromea Tom Morello , explicando de dónde obtuvo valor para hacer una versión de “ Blind Willie McTell ”, original de Bob Dylan . El tema salió en una compilación llamada Chimes of Freedom , lanzada por Amnesty International USA con fines benéficos, donde también se escuchan otros covers a Dylan por artistas como Peter Seeger y Gaslight Anthem, o la versión interpretada por Ke$ha de “ Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right ”. El track [...]

Why Miley Cyrus? Well, today marks the release of Chimes of Freedom , a 4-CD, 76-song set featuring various artists doing the songs of Bob Dylan. It's all to benefit Amnesty International, the human rights organization, on the occasion of its 50-year anniversary. The likes of My Morning Jacket, Tom Morello, Ziggy Marley, Flogging Molly, Joan Baez, Maroon 5, Queens of the Stone Age, Steve Earle and many more show up for this event, which makes one wonder why they chose Hannah Montana doing "You're Going To Make Me Lonesome When You Go" as the first video.

Quattro dischi, più di settanta canzoni, oltre ottanta artisti (l'ultimo è l'unico, inimitabile autore dei brani): " Chimes of Freedom: Songs of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International " è una raccolta di cover che una delle più importanti associazioni umanitarie al mondo ha deciso di assemblare per celebrare i suoi cinquant'anni di attività. Ha scelto un musicista-simbolo, un cantautore che ha saputo unire impegno sociale e poesia, protesta e sensibilità nei confronti del mondo in cui viviamo, che iniziava ad accelerare la corsa del progresso lasciando troppo spesso indietro quella per i diritti umani.

But dang it - you can hear all 70 + Dylan cover songs on Amnesty International's Chimes of Freedom compilation, if you like Amnesty International USA on Facebook . Whatevs - I'll do it. I like Amnesty International.
