Bob Dylan Music CD's - Essential Bob Dylan
An introduction to the songs of Bob Dylan
So The Essential Bob Dylan definitely skates over the leagues-deep oeuvre of Dylan, summarizing his monumental first half-dozen years in disc one and skirting over the following 34 years in disc two. Delving into Columbia's three Dylan greatest-hits packages (though curiously purging "I Want You," a genuine hit single in its day), Essential offers only a few surprises, opting for The Basement Tapes version of "Quinn the Eskimo" over the Self Portrait remake that made it onto Greatest Hits Volume II and tossing in "Things Have Changed" from the Wonder Boys soundtrack for completists. But this 30-track overview is designed with newcomers, not Dylanologists, in mind. --Steven Stolder

Bob Dylan latest news
Fetching RSS feed... please stand byBob Dylan and Catman Cohen
Catman Cohen and Bob Dylan have to my knowledge never met, but Catman Cohen was influenced among other, by Bob Dylena. Cohen's songs have been described as "Rock n' Roll Theater." The Catman's unmistakable bullfrog voice is a mixtuere of Barry White and the famous Louis Armstrong. His musical influences have included Tom Waits, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Bruce Springsteen, and Elton John.Catman Cohen mission was to create music with a message and thereby to shift the focus from artist to the songs content. He had decided that a single silhouette photo was to be his only tangible form of personal publicity. His known biography is ketchy and short.
