Bob Dylan - Dylan At The Movies - Vol. 1 (2007) & Vol. 2 (2015)

Back in November, Rod commented that the Dylan album that he wanted to see was one called 'Dylan At The Movies' - a collection of Bob Dylan's contributions to movie soundtracks. So for him and everyone else, here it is. I was surprised at just how many songs Dylan had written exclusively for films, while a number of them used alternate versions of more well-known songs, so it was interesting to try to collect them all together from various sources. Quite a few came from the 'Bootleg Collection' series, so the filmmakers seemed to be trying to get away from the obvious selections and go for something a bit different, and in the end there were so many tracks that I decided to split the album into two volumes of vinyl album length. The first song on 'Volume 1', 'Band Of The Hand (It's Hell Time Man)', was recorded for the film of the same name using Tom Petty's Heartbreakers as his backing band, and this volume features nearly all original songs, while 'Volume 2' plunders the 'Bootleg Collection' for some intriguing choices which the filmmakers felt enhanced their movies. Other than tracks 3, 7 and 8, all the songs on 'Volume 1' were penned just for the film, and were never included on any of his studio albums.
