Los Angeles - Bob Dylan is recording a new covers album. The 74-year-old singer is laying down tracks in Studio B at Hollywood's famous Capitol Studios for the follow-up to his critically-acclaimed 2015 record Shadows in the Night and sessions are going "great" so far. His engineer, Al Schmitt - who also worked on Shadows in the Night - explained he is again covering standards, though didn't say if they were all songs previously recorded by Frank Sinatra, as with his last album. On Shadows in the Night, the Ballad of a Thin Man hitmaker recorded the songs live with his five-piece band.
