NEW: Aubrey Nicole - Dylan Revisited digital-EP

L.A.-based singer Aubrey Nicole's recording debut is Dylan Revisited, a download-only 4 song EP. The RBL Records release was produced and arranged by her father, well-known session keyboardist Robbie Buchanan.
I have added the EP to Dylan Cover Albums HERE, as by "Nicole, Aubrey." If evidence arises that it should be listed as by "Aubrey Nicole" I will move it.

NEW!! The "3 or More" pages

I have added a new section to Dylan Cover Albums,
the
3 or More pages.
This section will feature all past & present albums with 3 or more Dylan covers that do not appear on any of the other main pages of the site (a few from minor pages will be repeated.)
The new pages can be accessed through the NEAR MISSES / 3+ button on the Dylan Cover Albums main menu page, then choose 3 OR MORE. Albums are arranged alphabetically by artist with each letter on a separate page, plus a various-artist album page.
The premiere of the 3 or More pages lists over 160 albums.

As always, comments and/or suggestions are welcome.
