By Chris Moore:
Thanks for getting your daily dose of acoustic guitar music at https://guitarbucketlist.com today! It only seemed appropriate to start off the work week with a song titled “I Shall Be Released”… This is a cover song originally written by Bob Dylan. Although he never officially released his version on an album, it’s available on the Biograph boxset and on The Essential Bob Dylan. Probably the most polished version is on the Band’s superb 1968 album Music from Big Pink.
I haven’t recorded a Dylan song in a while, so I figured I could sneak yet another one into my list of Laptop Sessions. It was really fun to do and I would have kept my first take if I wasn’t such a perfectionist…
Check out the Laptop Sessions archive for more cover songs and free music videos from our very own Jeff Copperthite…
See you next session!
