Celebrate the holidays with… Bob Dylan!
When not touring the country’s baseball stadiums and collaborating with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr (maybe?), Bob Dylan has apparently found time to work on a brand new album. But not just any kind of album, ladies and gentlemen, it will be Christmas one!
According to Bully! Pulpit (via Paste), the legendary singer/songwriter has recently begun recording a Christmas album at Jackson Browne’s Groove Master’s Studios in Santa Monica, California. Of the tracks rumored to be included are “Must Be Santa”, “Here Comes Santa Claus”, “I’ll Be Home For Christmas”, and “O Little Town of Bethlehem”.
If true, the release will mark Dylan’s first Christmas album. That said, it’s not like the 68-year-old musician hasn’t gotten in the holiday spirit before. Back in 2006, he recited “The Night Before Christmas” on his XM Radio show.
Three cheers for ol’ Saint Bob!
That picture looks like a cross between Dylan and Leonard Cohen.
