Bob Dylan has made his latest unpredictable career move: Rolling Stone has learned that Bob Dylan will release a Christmas album October 13th. Entitled Christmas in the Heart, the collection will feature holiday standards including “Must Be Santa,” “Little Drummer Boy,” “Winter Wonderland” and “Here Comes Santa Claus.” All U.S. royalties from the collection will benefit the charity Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity. Other proceeds from the disc will benefit hunger relief organizations around the world.
Although Dylan famously converted to Christianity in the late 1970s, he’s widely believed to have switched back to Judaism years ago — he appeared on Orthodox fundraising telethons in the 1980s and has attended Yom Kippur services in the past few years.
