Bob Dylan is finally working on a new studio album, recording at the Los Angeles studio of fellow songmeister Jackson Browne.
David Hidalgo, from Los Lobos, told the Apsen Times this week that he has been working with Bob on the record. Hidalgo described the sessions as sounding nothing like Dylan had ever done.
"It was a great experience. And different. Each one has been different, all completely different approaches. It’s an amazing thing, how he keeps creativity. I don’t see how he does it."
David also played on the last two Dylan albums. He said on this one he gets to play his Mexican instruments. An Accordion and a Tres (guitar-like instrument) were in the studio. David started to play them, Bob heard it and invited him to add the sounds to the record.
Dylan’s last album, Christmas Through The Heart, was released in 2009.
