I'm Not There (soundtrack)

Untitled

The soundtrack album for the Bob Dylan biopic I'm Not There was released as a double CD on October 30, 2007. It features various artists' recordings of songs from Dylan, and a previous unreleased Dylan recording of the title song "I'm Not There", which was recorded during the The Basement Tapes sessions. Fragments from less than than half of the titles are actually heard in the film, which relies more on original Dylan material.
A four-LP version was also released. It features the various artists on the record holding up the side numbers on cue cards, modeled after the "Subterranean Homesick Blues" scene from Dylan's 1967 film Dont Look Back.
John Doe's version of "Pressing On" was ranked #52 by Rolling Stone on their 100 Best Songs of 2007 list, while Sonic Youth's cover of "I'm Not There" was ranked at #83 by Pitchfork on their Top 100 Tracks of 2007.
