Bob Szajner Digital Ensemble Happy Birthday To You V4 Calypso

BOB DYLAN’S FIRST SOLO ACOUSTIC ALBUM IN NEARLY 30 YEARS REMAINS AN OVERLOOKED GEM: GOOD AS I BEEN TO YOU SERVES AS A PRELUDE TO HIS CELEBRATED LATE-CAREER ARC. Sourced from the Original Master Tapes, Presented in Audiophile Sound for the First Time, and Strictly Limited to 2,500 Numbered Copies: Mobile Fidelity’s Hybrid SACD Plays with Arresting Clarity and Detail. Three decades before he released The Philosophy of Modern Song — an insightful book devoted to 66 tunes that both impacted his career and the music world at large — Bob Dylan issued Good As I Been to You. The under-heralded 1992 album, Dylan’s first solo acoustic album in nearly 30 years and first all-covers effort in nearly 20 years, can be seen as a prophetic prelude to what has become the Nobel Laureate’s celebrated late-career arc. It’s also an absorbing continuation of the custom Dylan has embraced since he first picked up a guitar.

If your memory serves you well, you will recall that Bob Dylan was unplugged decades before MTV made it hip to be musically square again. Later, of course, he would inspire generations of singer-songwriters to plug in. So when in 1992 Dylan decides to cut a totally acoustic record of traditional folk and blues material that features only his own voice, guitar and harmonica, he is just about the last artist who could be accused of jumping on the musical bandwagon. After all, he helped build the wagon.
