4 Why Am I Doing This? Bob Dylan 2003 page 4 of 67 1 INTRODUCTION There were a lot of mixed releases this year, but no studio time. The releases included the Masked And Anonymous soundtrack with four songs recorded last year. The Gods And Generals soundtrack contained the new song Cross The Green Mountain, also recorded last year. Sony introduced a new web-service called Custom Mix CD, where the customer could choose up to twelve tracks and had his CD pressed and sent home. This service was however discontinued at the end of the year. Sony also released fifteen Dylan albums in the new SACD Hybrid format. And of course the Never-Ending Tour kept rolling on. This year Dylan played 98 concerts in Australia, New Zealand, US and Europe AT A GLANCE
