Bob Dylan Sings "I Shall Be Released" for First Time in 18 Years
At 85, Bob Dylan, known for deep cuts during live shows, unearthed "I Shall Be Released" after 18 years. With a vast 40-album catalog spanning 64 years, he surprised fans with the rare track.
Bob Dylan, still a tireless road dog at 85, loves to pull out a random deep cut at a random show. Dylan is now 64 years and 40 studio albums deep into his career, so his catalog is vast, and he can pick from a lot of tracks. Last week, for instance, Dylan kicked off the latest leg of his Rough And Rowdy Ways Tour in Troutdale, Oregon, and he played his song "Baby, Will You Be My Baby," recorded in 1967 and not officially released until 2014, for the first time ever . On Tuesday, Dylan hit Eugene, Oregon, and he once again reached back to the Basement Tapes sessions, this time bringing back a more famous song for the first time in 18 years.
