Description

Pause @ 53:21 for track list

Robyn's new self titled album is out April 21, 2017 on Yep Roc Records.

Robyn Rowan Hitchcock (born 3 March 1953) is an English singer-songwriter and guitarist. While primarily a vocalist and guitarist, he also plays harmonica, piano, and bass guitar. After reaching prominence in the late 1970s with The Soft Boys, Hitchcock launched a prolific solo career. His musical and lyrical styles have been influenced by Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Syd Barrett, Captain Beefheart, Bryan Ferry and Roger McGuinn.

Robyn Sings is a two-disc tribute to this influence, albeit with much more melody aboard than one would normally associate with Dylan's material. As mentioned, the first disc is the keeper of the two and includes live versions of some of Dylan's most well-known acoustic songs, recorded on tour at various American locales in 1999 and 2000.

Its full title should be Robyn Sings Dylan, since this collection features the British singer-songwriter exclusively covering Bob Dylan, going so far as to perform the electric half of Dylan’s 1966 Royal Albert Hall concert for its 30th anniversary nearly as it appeared on bootleg for decades before receiving its own official release. The recording quality for that show is rough, allegedly taken from an audience DAT of the concert. While Hitchcock and band can’t approximate Dylan and the Band’s original firepower, he does an admirable job mining the quirks and emotional gravity behind Dylan’s.
