The "Royal Albert Hall" Project


As noted on the official website: this "very special tribute to the music of Bob Dylan [honors] Dylan’s storied 1966 concert—long the Dylan bootleggers’ favorite.... Critic Dave Marsh reviewed it in Creem magazine, writing 'It is the most supremely elegant piece of rock ‘n’ roll music I’ve ever heard.'"


The performance features the album played in order by acts such as Laura Cantrell, Kelly Joe Phelps, Stevie Jackson (Belle & Sebastian), Marshall Crenshaw, Oakley Hall, Lenny Kaye & Katrina Kiedis (Sufjan Stevens Band), Jason Isbell (Drive By Truckers), Jim Lauderdale, Toshi Reagon, Freeman & Vernon Reid.
