Bob Dylan – Jokerman / I And I Remixes (RSD Drops 2021 12" Vinyl)
Product Details
The reggae undercurrents running through *Infidels* (1983) were no accident. Dylan recorded the album in New York with Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare, and the spiritual weight of tracks like "Jokerman" and "I And I" always pointed somewhere toward Kingston. These remixes make that connection explicit, completing a circle that's been turning for over four decades.
This 12” features two reggae remixes, each of “Jokerman” and “I And I”, by Doctor Dread. The original versions of both tracks appeared on Dylan’s Infidels album, with Sly & Robbie as the rhythm section.
The two “I And I” remixes were previously released on Is It Rolling Bob: A Reggae Tribute To Bob Dylan (2003), while the “Jokerman” remixes are newly commissioned and previously unreleased. Doctor Dread has worked with Bob Marley, Black Uhuru, Jimmy Cliff, Inner Circle, Gregory Isaacs, Luciano, Mad Cobra, Freddy McGregor, Sly and Robbie, Steel Pulse, The Wailers, and many others.
