A Song-for-Song Recreation of Dylan's Famous 1966 Concert on Double LP! In November 2022, Cat Power took the stage at London's Royal Albert Hall and delivered a song-for-song recreation of one of the most fabled and transformative live sets of all time. Held at the Manchester Free Trade Hall in May 1966 - but long known as the Royal Albert Hall Concert due to a mislabeled bootleg - the original performance saw Bob Dylan switching from acoustic to electric midway through the show, drawing ire from an audience of folk purists and forever altering the course of rock-and-roll. In her own rendition of that historic night, the artist otherwise known as Chan Marshall inhabited each song with equal parts conviction and grace and a palpable sense of protectiveness, ultimately transposing the anarchic tension of Dylan's set with a warm and luminous joy. Now captured on the live album Cat Power Sings Dylan: The 1966 Royal Albert Hall Concert, Marshall's spellbinding performance both lovingly honors her hero's imprint on history and brings a stunning new vitality to many of his most revered songs. She Belongs to Me, Fourth Time Around, Visions of Johanna, It's All Over Now Baby Blue, Desolation Row, Just Like a Woman, Mr. Tambourine Man, Tell Me Momma, I Don't Believe You (She Acts Like We Never Have Met), Baby Let Me Follow You Down, Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues, Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat, One Too Many Mornings, Ballad of a Thin Man, Like a Rolling Stone
