Bob Dylan Sings Frank Sinatra

As strange at that seems, it's true. As per the press release:

Bob Dylan has released Shadows in the Night, a studio album featuring interpretations of Frank Sinatra tracks. The collection of 10 songs and standards was released today via Columbia Records, and marks the first new music from Dylan in three years.

Produced by Jack Frost, it will be the 36th studio album from Bob Dylan, and follows the release of the rewired Sinatra hit Full Moon and Empty Arms last spring. “It was a real privilege to make this album,” Dylan said in a statement. “I’ve wanted to do something like this for a long time, but was never brave enough to approach 30-piece complicated arrangements and refine them down for a five-piece band.” 

Yes, I'm sure his interpretations will be unique.  Here is a brief sample:

 STRANGERS IN THE NIGHT

Bob: Sjejekttj liw  e keuhtkt... eheilzhlty uwtyhpaghheeitnyleyghalmehseimlqnusrrnnyhg.

LOVE AND MARRIAGE

Bob: Sjejekttj liw  e keuhtkt... eheilzhlty uwtyhpaghheeitnyleyghalmehseimlqnusrrnnyhg.

ONE FOR MY BABY

Bob: Sjejekttj liw  e keuhtkt... eheilzhlty uwtyhpaghheeitnyleyghalmehseimlqnusrrnnyhg.

and of course, NEW YORK NEW YORK.  Sell it, Bob!

Bob: Sjejekttj liw  e keuhtkt... eheilzhlty uwtyhpaghheeitnyleyghalmehseimlqnusrrnnyhg.

I can't wait for his duet salute to Steve & Eydie with Bjork.

Here is brilliant Drew Friedman's vision of what the album cover should be.
