Bob Dylan Appreciation Society IV

Outlaw Blues
The fourth & final instalment of the Dylan tribute sessions rocks the heaviest. A whole heap of rocking cover versions & Dylan-related material, along with music from more artists who have inspired the man. Spotlight on legendary folk singer & native rights activist Peter LaFarge as well as songs by longime co-conspirators Phil Ochs, Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Mark Knopfer George Harrison, Tom Petty & The Band. Also featuring the man himself, Bob Dylan. The tempo cools off later of with a folk and ballads.

A total of 147 tracks spread over 4 mixes for a mammoth 10 hours. Features 18 Dylan originals, 107 songs penned by Dylan, including 99 cover versions of Dylan songs & then a lot of Dylan related tracks written by others. Two or three of the songs here enjoy being done over twice by different artists. There are probably enough alternative versions to make another 4 mixes but i reckon that I've managed to cherry pick the cream of the crop here & think we've captured the majority of Bob's best songs already too. I've enjoyed doing this one as it makes a good change to hear all of these great songs sung with such variety. Enjoy!
