Cat Power Sings Dylan: The 1966 Royal Albert Hall Concert (LP)

Black vinyl LP. Last November in London, Cat Power took the stage at Royal Albert Hall and delivered a song-for-song re-creation of one of the most fabled and transformative live sets of all time.

Held at the Manchester Free Trade Hall in May 1966 - but long known as the "Royal Albert Hall Concert" due to a mislabeled bootleg - the original performance saw Bob Dylan switching from acoustic to electric midway through the show, drawing ire from an audience of folk purists and forever altering the course of rock-and-roll.

In her own rendition of that historic night, the artist otherwise known as Chan Marshall inhabited each song with equal parts conviction and grace and a palpable sense of protectiveness, ultimately transposing the anarchic tension of Dylan's set with a warm and luminous joy.

Now captured on the live album Cat Power Sings Dylan: The 1966 Royal Albert Hall Concert, Marshall's spellbinding performance both lovingly honours her hero's imprint on history and brings a stunning new vitality to many of his most revered songs.
