Band performs Gaelic Dylan songs

Some of Dylan's best known songs will be performed in Gaelic

A poet who translated Bob Dylan songs into Gaelic is to have them performed for the first time.

Rody Gorman made the translations of classic Dylan compositions like Knocking On Heaven's Door, She Belongs To Me and All Along The Watchtower.

The songs will be performed by a band at the first Leabhar's Craic Gaelic festival in Glasgow on Saturday.

The festival, which celebrates Gaelic literature, will be held at the Centre for Contemporary Arts.

Dublin-born Mr Gorman now lives on the Isle of Skye.

He has published many poetry collections in both Scottish and Irish Gaelic, and has worked as a writing fellow at Sabhal Mor Ostaig in Skye and at University College Cork.
