ABOUT THE ALBUM
Like all Folk/Blues/Roots performers BOB?DYLAN is a sponge, and throughout his career he's continually revisited his roots, paying tribute to artists from whom he drew inspiration. Indeed, when he arrived in New York in January 1961 he described himself as "A walking Woody Guthrie jukebox." That said, in those early days he was equally reliant on the repertoires of vintage Country Blues performers. This compilation presents twenty-six records that either directly inspired or influenced Dylan - in many cases, both. Featured artists include Lead Belly, Woody Guthrie, Bukka White, Blind Willie McTell (his favourite Blues singer), Robert Johnson, Charley Patton, the Mississippi Sheiks, Sleepy John Estes, Dominic Behan, Henry Thomas, Blind Lemon Jefferson, etc. His first album, "Bob Dylan" (1962), was awash with covers and/or adaptations, seven of which are featured herein.
