Review by Emma Woodhouse

A Nod To Bob 2: An Artists Tribute To Bob Dylan On His 70th Birthday is an outstanding album that features a collection of covers from various artists in honor of the legendary folk singer. The album is a follow-up to the first Nod To Bob album, which was released in 2001, and it is a fitting tribute to Dylan on his 70th birthday.

The album features a diverse range of artists, including Joan Osborne, John Gorka, and Lucy Kaplansky, each bringing their unique interpretations to Dylan's classic songs. The album is a testament to Dylan's enduring influence on contemporary music, and the artists on this album have done a fantastic job paying homage to his work.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "I Shall Be Released," covered by the Indigo Girls. The duo's harmonies are beautiful, and they bring a fresh energy to the song while staying true to its original spirit. Another standout is "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right," covered by Chris Smither. Smither's gravelly voice and bluesy guitar work give the song a new dimension and make it his own.
