Bob Dylan signs deal with Starbucks, promises not to creep us out with anymore Victoria's Secret ads

"Bob Dylan has signed an exclusive CD deal with Starbucks Corp. allowing the coffee retailers to sell a new live album 18 months before it goes on general sale.

The album, Dylan: Live at the Gaslight 1962, will hit the 4,6000 American Starbucks stores on August 30 at $13.95, featuring ten previously unreleased tracks, according to CNN Money.

The company's most successful music venture to date has been the release of Grammy Award-winning Ray Charles CD Genius Love Company. Since its release last autumn, the retailer has sold more than 775,000 units, representing 26% of total American sales.

It was reported earlier this month that HMV had pulled Alanis Morissette's albums from their shelves in retaliation to a similar deal with Starbucks over an acoustic re-recording of her Jagged Little Pill album."
