Odetta - Masters Of War

"Odetta Sings Dylan is the 1965 album by American folk singer Odetta, an entire album of covers of Bob Dylan songs. In addition to a number of well known Dylan compositions, a couple of fairly obscure songs were included, including "Baby, I'm in the Mood for You".

This album was re-released on CD by BMG Camden (773802) in August 3, 2000. "Blowin' in the Wind" (which first appeared on Odetta Sings Folk Songs, 1963) and "Paths of Victory" (Odetta Sings of Many Things, 1964) were added as bonus tracks."

You're all very welcome :) I am glad to see other people sharing the love for Odetta. Her voice + Bob Dylan's lyrics are clearly a match made in heaven. So amazing. :D Keep spreading the word!

I had this album in the 60's and loved it. But I used to sometimes have this weird thought when I was listening to it. Dylan's voice was higher and thinner then (he was very young) and he sang the songs faster. Odetta sang them all very deep and slow. Sometimes I felt like I was listening to a 45 rpm Dylan album played at 33 1/3. The 60's were a strange time . . .
