Description
Bob Dylan made his mark on US pop culture in the 1960s with his performances, his songwriting and lyrics like no other contemporary. An icon of folk and rock music, he influenced a generation of fellow artists who were either unable or unwilling to escape his charisma.
French music producer Philippe Le Bras spent years developing the concept of a compilation on which Dylan's influence is obvious at every second, although not a single cover version of his songs can be found. Yet the master is present on every track on this CD, leaving his mark on these songs and their performers. It's quite remarkable who is here: Lou Reed, Leon Russell, David Crosby, Boz Scaggs, Bob Seger, Bobby Darin, Tom Rush, Len Chandler, Dion, Peter La Farge, Barry McGuire, Casey Anderson, Ferre Grignard, Dick Campbell, P.F. Sloan, Dean DeWolf, Johnny Winter, Billy Joe Royal, David Blue and others. Three of the 25 artists on the CD debuted in the mid/late fifties, one was added after 1975. Throughout, you can hear these artists trying to catch up with their peer and mentor and write songs in the way he pioneered.
