Love And Theft  by Bob Dylan

Love And Theft from 2001 is Bob Dylan's thirty-first studio album, and it is the record with which Dylan marks the beginning of the twenty-first century after a four-year recording absence.

Bob Dylan records twelve of his own compositions that carry the blues, country, and even jazz atmosphere within them. The recording of Love And Theft took place on scattered dates in May 2001 at Clinton Recording Studio in New York, and the producer of the album was Bob Dylan himself under the pseudonym Jack Frost. For the recording needs of the album, the great American songwriter works with musicians such as Charlie Sexton, Larry Campbell, and David Law Kemper, with whom he has been collaborating since the 1990s.

The album reached No. 5 in the U.S. and No. 3 in the United Kingdom, where it went gold based on its sales. It had a similar fate in New Zealand, Sweden, and Switzerland.
