Bob Dylan's Three-Disc 'Triplicate,' Featuring American Standards, Comes Out Today

Bob Dylan

BOB DYLAN’s first three-disc album, "Triplicate," comes out today on COLUMBIA RECORDS, featuring 30 recordings of classic AMERICAN songs. 

Each disc is presented in a thematically-arranged 10-song sequence, illuminating compositions from great AMERICAN songwriters interpreted by DYLAN through his unique artistry
as a vocalist, arranger and bandleader.

The album, produced by DYLAN under his sobriquet JACK FROST, is his 38th studio set and marks the first new music from the artist since "Fallen Angels," which was released early last year.

"Triplicate" will be simultaneously released in several configurations, including a three-CD eight-panel Digipak, a three-LP vinyl set and a three-LP deluxe vinyl limited edition packaged in a numbered case.  "Triplicate" is also available for pre-order on iTUNES, and one of its recordings, “I Could Have Told You,” can now be streamed via a “Vinyl Video” on YOUTUBE 

DYLAN recorded the album in HOLLYWOOD's CAPITOL studios, featuring such AMERICAN composers as CHARLES GTROUSE and LEE ADAMS (“Once Upon A Time”); HAROLD ARLEN and TED KOEHLER (“Stormy Weather”), HAROLD HUPFIELD (“As Time Goes By”) and CY COLEMAN and CAROLYN LEIGH (“The Best Is Yet To Come”).  The titles of the individual discs are "‘Til The Sun Goes Down," "Devil Dolls" and "Comin’ Home Late."

The artist’s two previous albums of classic AMERICAN songs, last year’s "Fallen Angels" and 2015’s "Shadows in the Night," garnered GRAMMY nominations in the category of Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.  

In DECEMBER 2016, DYLAN was awarded the NOBEL PRIZE for Literature by the SWEDISH ACADEMY “for having created new poetic expressions within the great AMERICAN song tradition.” 

Bob Dylan has sold more than 125 million records around the world.
