Bob Dylan’s First New Studio Recording Of “Blowin’ In The Wind” Since 1962 © Christie’s Images Limited 2022
Bob Dylan’s first new studio recording of Blowin in the Wind since 1962 sold for £1,482,000 at Christie’s Exceptional Sale in London today. It was from a special session with multi-Grammy winning producer T Bone Burnett, on the recently announced groundbreaking Ionic Original disc. T Bone Burnett, Founder of NeoFidelity Inc. and multi-Grammy-winning producer commented: “Marshall McLuhan said that a medium surrounds a previous medium and turns the previous medium into an art form, as film did with novels, as television did with film, as the internet has done with television, and as digital has done with analogue. With Bob Dylan’s new version of “Blowin’ In The Wind”, our first Ionic Original archival analogue disc, we have entered and aim to help develop a music space in the fine arts market. I trust and hope it will mean as much to whomever acquired it today at Christie’s Exceptional Sale as it does to all of us who made it, and that they will consider it and care for it as a painting or any other singular work of art.”
