If, however, people in some political movement were inspired by his songs...and many were...why not celebrate those songs? Whether he meant them to or not, his songs served as a voice for millions of people. |

One review that I read said that of the four CDs in the set there was one CD worth of music worth havingChimes of Freedom — 76 Newly Recorded Bob Dylan Songs by Over 80 Artists Scheduled for January 24 Release — Salutes Amnesty International's 50th Anniversary and Life-Saving Human Rights Work "The Collection Features Songs By * Adele * The Airborne Toxic Event * Joan Baez * Natasha Bedingfield * Jackson Browne * Cage the Elephant * Elvis Costello * Darren Criss * Miley Cyrus * Dave Matthews Band * K'NAAN * Ke$ha * Mark Knopfler * Diana Krall * Lenny Kravitz * Kris Kristofferson * Ziggy Marley * Maroon 5 * Tom Morello * My Chemical Romance * Joe Perry * Queens Of The Stone Age * Raphael Saadiq * Seal & Jeff Beck * Silversun Pickups * Patti Smith * Sting * Sugarland * Pete Townshend * Lucinda Williams * Evan Rachel Wood" |

The review that said there's only Just one cd worth having must have been written by someone with cloth ears who doesn't like music. I'm nearly halfway through the 4cds and there's not a bad track on it. Superb performances by noted artists (some of whom are new to me) who have given their talents for free for a very worthy cause. It's 4cds for 15 quid! What are you waiting for? |
