Michel Montecrossa’s Michel & Bob Dylan Fest 2015 is released by Mira Sound Germany on Audio-CD, DVD and as Download.
Michel Montecrossa’s Michel & Bob Dylan Fest 2015 which was recorded live on Tuesday 28th July 2015 during the Spirit of Woodstock Festival in Mirapuri, begins with Michel Montecrossa’s straightforward ‘We Play The Shit We Like – We Play The Shit We Love’, followed by the Bob Dylan songs ‘Beyond Here Lies Nothin’’, ‘This Dream Of You’, ‘4th Time Around’ and Michel Montecrossa’s
‘What You Wanna Do, Do It Now’. Jimmie Rodgers, the Father of Country Music, is one of the artists covered by Bob Dylan and Michel Montecrossa therefore sings Jimmie Rodgers’ ‘I’m Lonesome Too’. The Michel Montecrossa original ‘God Is A Girl’ leads to Bob Dylan’s ‘Silent Weekend’. Michel Montecrossa then goes on with his ‘She’s The Great Morning, The Wonderful Day’. The Bob Dylan song ‘I’m Your Teenage Prayer’ connects to Michel Montecrossa’s 21st century style ‘Teen’. The finale are the traditional ‘900 Miles From My Home’ as arranged by Bob Dylan and ‘I’m A Fool To Want You’, one of the Frank Sinatra songs which Bob Dylan also performed.
Michel Montecrossa says about his Michel & Bob Dylan Fest 2015:
“My Michel & Bob Dylan Fest 2015 is made of songs that have learned not to ask questions while breaking into the wonder-garden of love’s romantic relations. The songs I sing say something good about human nature even if this nature can’t get off sexually unless she knows that she is betraying the object of her desire.
They are slender songs, they are fluid, their age is difficult to guess, they are stateless satellites, some are blond and some are soft-voiced, but all are fragments of a glass-walled gift shop longing for your smile.
Such songs themselves smile without showing their teeth, highlighting a girl’s small hard breasts while smelling like:
We Play The Shit We Like – We Play The Shit We Love • Beyond Here Lies Nothin’ • This Dream Of You • 4th Time Around • What You Wanna Do, Do It Now • I’m Lonesome Too • God Is A Girl • Silent Weekend • She’s The Great Morning, The Wonderful Day • I’m Your Teenage Prayer • Teen • 900 Miles From My Home • I‘m A Fool To Want You.”
