Sonic Youth, Iעm Not There Audio
by Staff | 10.22.2007

“I’m Not There” is considered one of Bob Dylan’s lost gems. Having been recorded during the sessions for The Basement Tapes, then discarded, it can only be found by the most ardent Dylan completists on the bootlegs The Genuine Basement Tapes or A Tree With Roots, so itt seems fitting then that this nugget of insider Dylan knowledge should be used not only as the title of the upcoming Todd Haynes biopic, but also on the soundtrack.

Excavating the track, and adding their own indelible stamp is Sonic Youth. Where most of his songs are so distinctly Dylan-esque, Sonic Youth have the luxury of covering a song that very few people have heard, giving them a little more freedom with the track. The group take the easy-going vocals and apply that feeling to the whole song, shuffling through and almost making it sound like one of their own mellower compositions.

I've been HEE-aled.

Amazing how the use of Dylan's words and progressions lend themselves to such a heavy gravitas.

hiland · 10.24.2007, 12:24 PM

clever name · 10.26.2007, 06:30 PM

Hooray, I've been waiting to hear what this was all about. Not as amazing as I expected, but not a waste of time either. This band is almost too expert for their own good nowadays. Is this an Agnello production? Pity that Kim didn't sing it, we've already heard lots of folksy Thurston records lately.
