}} ''New Morning'' is the eleventh studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on October 19, 1970 by Columbia Records. Coming only four months after the controversial ''Self Portrait'', the more concise and immediate ''New Morning'' won a much warmer reception from fans and critics. Most welcome was the return of Dylan's familiar, nasal singing voice. While he has a slightly nasal tone to his voice on "Alberta #1" from ''Self Portrait'' this was the first full album with his familiar voice since ''John Wesley Harding'' in 1967: he had taken on a country croon since then. In retrospect, the album has come to be viewed as one of the artist's lesser successes, especially following the release of ''Blood on the Tracks'' in 1975, often seen as a fuller return-to-form. It reached #7 in the US, quickly going gold, and gave Dylan his sixth and last UK number 1 album until ''Together Through Life'' in 2009. The album's most successful song from a commercial perspective is probably "If Not for You", which also was recorded by George Harrison, who had played guitar on a version of the song not released until 1991's ''Bootleg Series Volume 2,'' and was also an international hit for Olivia Newton-John in 1971. Bryan Ferry also included the song on ''Dylanesque''. ==Details== Dylan discusses the recording of ''New Morning'' at length in one chapter of his autobiography, ''Chronicles, Vol. 1''. Several alternate, preliminary forms of the album have been documented, including tracks which later appeared on the 1973 ''Dylan''. He has played only four of the album's twelve songs in concert; one, "If Dogs Run Free", made its live debut on October 1, 2000, within days of the 30th anniversary of the album's original release. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「New Morning」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
