Those hoping for a new Bob Dylan album will have their wishes granted threefold on March 31 when the Nobel laureate releases “Triplicate.” Those hoping for an album that’s a little less Frank Sinatra-esque than his last two releases, “Fallen Angels” and “Shadows in the Night” may have to wait a little longer. According to Dylan’s website, the three discs will include strictly cover versions of standards such as “Stardust,” “Stormy Weather” and “As Time Goes By.” You can listen to the first single off of “Triplicate” here.
Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
