Ambitious Bob Dylan Tribute Release Coming In January [VIDEO]
On January 24th, one of the most extensive tribute releases ever conceived will be available. 'Chimes Of Freedom: The Songs Of Bob Dylan Honoring 50 Years Of Amnesty International' will be a 4-disc, 75 song tribute and feature a wide ranging list of artists.
Among the highlights are Eric Burdon taking off on 'Gotta Serve Somebody', Carly Simon on 'Just Like A Woman', Pete Townshend interpreting 'Corrina Corrina', and stunning guitar/vocal duet with Seal and Jeff Beck performing 'Like A Rolling Stone'. Proceeds will benefit Amnesty International.
I can't recall any tribute album to an artist that features nearly this many different songs, or this many artists. You can see the full track listing at PasteMagazine.com, and a bonus.... Stream songs from the album on the Amnesty International facebook page at facebook.com/AmnestyUSA
Dylan himself will revisit the title track. Here's Bob performing 'Cold Irons Bound' as an appetizer for the new compilation:
