Shadows in the Night is the thirty-sixth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released in February 2015 via Columbia Records.
The album consists of covers of traditional pop standards made famous by Frank Sinatra, chosen by Dylan.
Speaking of his intention behind the album, Dylan stated: "I don't see myself as covering these songs in any way. They've been covered enough. Buried, as a matter a fact. What me and my band are basically doing is uncovering them. Lifting them out of the grave and bringing them into the light of day."
The album has received universal acclaim from critics for its unexpected and strong song selection and for the strength of Dylan and his band's performance and arrangements.
Have a listen to the following tracks from the album - Stay With Me, Full Moon And Empty Arms and The Night We Called It A Day.
The album was produced by Bob Dylan using his pseudonym "Jack Frost" and was recorded in 2014 at Capitol Studios in studio B, where Frank Sinatra often recorded his albums.
According to the album's recording engineer, Al Schmitt, the songs on Shadows were recorded live with Dylan singing and his five-man touring band performing the songs in the same room at the same time without headphones.
The cover art for Shadows in the Night presents images and a design that evoke the early 1960s. The front cover incorporates a photo of Dylan in a thoughtful pose in formal attire, presented in shadow behind a vertical-bar design that emulates the cover of jazz trumpeter Freddie Hubbard's 1962 album Hub-Tones.
The back cover photo shows Dylan and a masked woman, both in formal wear, sitting at a small nightclub table looking at a seven-inch Sun Records single. Their appearance may allude to the 1966 Black and White Ball, a masked ball attended by Frank Sinatra and his wife Mia Farrow, both of whom wore masks at the event.
As with many of Dylan albums of the past fifteen years, the packaging features minimal credits and no printed lyrics.
The album debuted at #1 on the UK Albums Chart, making Dylan the oldest male solo artist to chart at number one in the UK.
The album reached #7 on the US Billboard 200 Albums Chart and #8 on the Australian ARIA Albums Chart.
This LP Record is a Limited Edition on 180 Gram Vinyl with a Printed Inner Sleeve featuring Credits and a CD Album Copy, pressed in Europe.
