Page "Robyn Hitchcock" Paragraph 8

The 2002 double album Robyn Sings comprised cover versions of Bob Dylan songs, including a live re-creation ( performed in 1996 ) of Dylan's so-called Live at the Royal Albert Hall 1966 concert.

Hitchcock celebrated his 50th birthday in 2003 with a concert at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London at which his then-new solo acoustic album Luxor was given away as a gift to all those attending, and an original poem of his was read by actor Alan Rickman.

He continued collaborating with a series of different musicians, as on the album Spooked, which was recorded with country / folk duo ( and longtime Hitchcock fans ) Gillian Welch and David Rawlings.

The Soft Boys re-formed again in 2006 to perform a live concert of Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd covers in London, benefiting Médecins Sans Frontières.
