Bob Dylan Has One On The Way

by Paul Cashmere - February 17 2009

Bob Dylan has completed a follow-up to his 2006 album Modern Times.

Fan site bobdylanisis.com reports that Bob recorded the album in California last October.

The new Dylan could be released as early as April.

Isis stated that the finished album has been taken to Europe already and that listening sessions for Sony executives have taken place in London, Munich and Oslo.

The album is currently untitled.

The new album will follow-up what became known as the trilogy. The trilogy albums were ‘Time Out Of Mind’, released in 1997, ‘Love and Theft’ from 2001 and ‘Modern Times’ in 2006.

The three albums were Bob’s most successful works since ‘Slow Train Coming’ from 1979.

The new album will be Bob’s 33rd studio album.

He released his first album ‘Bob Dylan’ in 1962. It failed to make the US chart but reached number 13 in England.

His next album ‘The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan’ was released the following year and reached number 22 in America. It featured ‘Blowin’ In The Wind’. ‘A Hard Rains A-Gonna Fall’ and ‘Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right’.

Dylan then released two albums in 1964. The title track of ‘The Times They Are A Changin’ became a Dylan classic.

The new album is expected to feature 10 new Dylan songs.
