New releases from Bob Dylan and Radiohead

It was reported today that Bob Dylan will be releasing a Christmas album this year. I'm curious to see what a Bob Dylan Christmas carol would sound like.

Also, Radiohead has a released a new song in honor of Harry Patch, who was the last known British WWI Veteran. He passed away on July 25th of this year at the amazing age of 111. Radiohead had recorded the song a few weeks before Patch passed on. According to Thom Yorke, the way Patch talked about war in a BBC interview in 2005 had an immense effect on him, thus inspiring a song.

You can download the song for $1.70 here. All proceeds benefit the Royal British Legion.
