Cloud Nothings is the first full-length studio album and second LP overall by Cloud Nothings. It was released on January 24, 2011, by Carpark Records and was produced and mixed by Chester Gwazda at his home studio in Baltimore. All songs were written and performed by Dylan Baldi.
Pitchfork awarded the album a 7.9 and stated "The result is another fantastic step forward, though not without some growing pains." [1] Avclub raved "The Cleveland teenager slashes though catchy melodies like broken guitar-strings on his full-length debut as Cloud Nothings, as if mad dashes of melodicism grew on trees." [2] The New York Times said "His first full album, Cloud Nothings (Carpark)--11 songs in 28 minutes—raises the production values only slightly, cutting back distortion while layering on guitars. But it keeps the sound of a guy holed up with his instruments, concocting hooks and strumming retaliation for every slight." [3]
All songs by Dylan Baldi.

Blood on the Tracks is the fifteenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on January 20, 1975, by Columbia Records. The album marked Dylan's return to Columbia Records after a two-album stint with Asylum Records. Dylan began recording the album in New York City in September 1974. In December, shortly before Columbia was due to release the album, Dylan abruptly re-recorded much of the material in a studio in Minneapolis. The final album contains five tracks recorded in New York and five from Minneapolis.
"Like a Rolling Stone" is a song by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on July 20, 1965, by Columbia Records.

Dylan distilled this draft into four verses and a chorus. "Like a Rolling Stone" was recorded a few weeks later as part of the sessions for the forthcoming album Highway 61 Revisited.
