Britta Lee Shain Does Dylan

Britta Lee Shain‘s recent book, “The Real You At Last”, about her days touring and canoodling with Bob Dylan, was just released on Jawbone Press. Also new is her latest CD, What The Heart Wants (reviewed below). The celebratory concert and book signing had a touch of magic in the air. Hosted at the very cool venue Kidd’s Jewelry Heist in South Pasadena, the evening had all the ingredients: food, wine, and lots of the local songwriter scene all came out to celebrate.

Backing Britta on originals and the poignant Dylan cover “Make You Feel My Love” were the excellent musicians of the Spork and Foon Review(Marty Axelrod, Debra Dobkin and Mark “Pocket” Goldberg and Ed Tree – with Britta above.

The evening started early and ended late as the many well-wishers got signed copies of the book and spent time hobnobbing in the very comfortable surroundings. This is why we go out to shows, folks. To enjoy the community we belong to.
