Dylan has just brought out a new CD, popular romantic songs from the 30s to 50s. One is Stardust, one of my alltime favourite songs. It was written by Hoagy Carmchael, here's his version:

Now Dylan has recorded it:

What's surprising is that his voice has returned, and he's quite tuneful! I can't decide whether to buy the CD, I think Bob genuinely loves these songs, as I do.
What do you think?

This is the new album

It's reviewed (quite favourably) in this week's Sunday Times.
