4 added to Dylan Cover Albums

I usually wait until I have the CDs in hand before officially adding albums to Dylan Cover Albums, but due to a backlog caused by a series of release/shipping delays and/or CDs missing in the mail I've added these four pending titles to the site today.
Click the titles to find the albums on the site.

Cinzia Tedesco
Like A Bob Dylan
Italian jazz vocalist Cinzio Tedesco presents a 10-song live album. This is not easy-listening jazz, almost every track starts slow but builds to a big finish that will shake your windows and rattle your walls. Note: most published tracklists, including the CD itself, reverse the last two tracks but shown here is the actual play order.
My CD is lost in the mail somewhere, but I've heard the album from iTunes.
Lay Lady Lay / Mr. Tambourine Man / Make You Feel My Love / I Shall Be Released / Just Like A Woman / Knocking On The Heaven's Door (sic) / Like A Rolling Stone / Meet Me In The Morning / Blowin' In The Wind / Hurricane (instrumental)
More info and ordering at CNI Music (Italy)
Available from iTunes


Swamp Dylan

Bliss Motel
This third album from Swamp Dylan can be heard on-line at SwampDylan.com
Current availability unknown. I was told the album was not "officially" released yet, and have received no furthur notice.
Had A Dream About You, Baby / Dreamin' Of You / Floater (Too Much To Ask) / Huck's Tune / Moonlight / Red River Shore / Po' Boy / Make You Feel My Love

Sfuzzi East/West

The US/Italy collaborative returns with a follow up to their well-received 2008 album of early Dylan tunes. On the new disc the band samples all of Dylan's song catalog.
