Get Ready for Record Store Day on April 12th with Dave Stewart and Eurythmics!

This year’s Record Store Day brings a double delight for Eurythmics fans! Not only will you have the chance to grab Dave Stewart’s highly anticipated new album of Bob Dylan covers, but you’ll also be able to pick up the long-awaited “Be Yourself Tonight” Picture Disc, just in time for its 40th anniversary.

Dave Stewart’s New Album: A Tribute to Bob Dylan

Dave Stewart, known for his incredible musical partnership with Annie Lennox in Eurythmics, is paying homage to his longtime friend Bob Dylan with a new album of covers. Featuring iconic tracks like “Simple Twist of Fate,” “I Want You,” “Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright,” and “She Belongs to Me,” this album is a must-have for fans.

For months, Dave has been teasing his Instagram followers with clips of him “noodling” on his guitar, playing some of these classic Bob Dylan songs. The positive reaction from fans has been overwhelming, and this album is his response to that enthusiastic support. Bob Dylan himself has praised Dave, calling him a “dreamer and a fearless innovator”. The back cover of the album even includes a heartfelt quote from Dylan and a photo of the two taken in Camden while filming a video. This album is more than just music—it’s a testament to a friendship that has spanned decades.

“Be Yourself Tonight” Picture Disc: A Collector’s Dream

Eurythmics fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of the “Be Yourself Tonight” Picture Disc, and it’s finally here! Originally scheduled for National Album Day five years ago, the release was delayed due to quality control issues. Now, just ahead of its 40th anniversary, the picture disc is set to hit the shelves.

This is the first picture disc album release since “Sweet Dreams” and “Touch,” making it a significant addition to any fan’s collection. With its striking visuals and timeless tracks, “Be Yourself Tonight” remains a classic that continues to resonate with listeners.
