The Dylan Project

Steve Gibbons

(1998). #08 - "Cover Me" (The Chart) - The Twenty Best Bob Dylan Covers Albums. www.covermesongs.com review: It seems against the spirit of this site to be including an out-and-out covers band, that is, a band purely existing to pay tribute to another. But an exception is here needed, down in part to the pedigree of the musicians, and in part to the astonishing near-Dylan that singer Steve Gibbons produces. Of course, he sounds nothing like Dylan, or at least not like any recent Dylan, as well as being in a slightly higher register. Plus, this album precedes his taking a band, with the same name, out on the road. And for any disappointed by the odd intonations of modern day Bob, or even erratic live arrangements, this is a package that can present peak period Dylan in a live setting, reliably, night after night. Gibbons, himself with his own pedigree to celebrate (world famous in Birmingham, UK, for over fifty years), has always sung the odd Dylan song in his own band. The rest of the project here is made up by the current rhythm section of Fairport Convention, abetted by PJ Wright on guitars & steel and by John “Rabbit” Bundrick on keyboards. Their embellishments add rather than detract, presenting well-remembered songs in new settings, straying never that far from how your memory is expecting. Gibbons now splits his time between solo shows, his own eponymous band, and this Project, a firm festival favorite. There is one Gibbons original on the record, but I challenge anyone to spot it, unprompted. [First added to this chart: 06/01/2022]

Red On Blonde

Tim O'Brien

#05 - "Cover Me" (The Chart) - The Twenty Best Bob Dylan Covers Albums. www.covermesongs.com review: Red on blonde? Tim O’Brien is defiantly ginger here in this selection, where this consummate roots musician plunders Dylan’s songbook, delivering confidently capable renditions that display an effortlessness of techniques across the spectrum of an acoustic Americana. However, being predominantly an accomplished mandolin player, the emphasis is bluegrass, and it is when he plows this farrow that the album comes alive. With workouts beginning with flurries of banjo, fiddle and mandolin, it is often a guess as to which song it will be, and often not quite the expected. “Subterranean Homesick Blues” is a tour de force of clog dance, hoofing as the rhythm, vocals over the top, that will either annoy or exhilarate. I love this stuff and it’s my list, so I’m going with exhilarated. Curveball selections like “God Gave Names To All the Animals” work, arguably, better than on their original, and “Farewell Angelina,” better known in the Baez than the Bob, sounds like a long-lost standard from the Appalachians. Deep cut: “Farewell Angelina” (Bootleg Series 1-3, a discard from Bringing It All Back Home) [First added to this chart: 05/29/2022]
