Bob Dylan is giving away his latest album for free to select seniors as the 73-year-old rock legend says he is at peace with getting older. Dylan's 36th studio album, "Shadows in the Night," which interprets songs by Frank Sinatra, will be mailed at random to 50,000 readers of AARP's magazine, which is sent to some 35 million Americans age 50 or older. Dylan's move on "Shadows in the Night," which goes on sale on February 3, comes after U2 last year gave its album for free to the half billion users of iTunes. Dylan, who was a major figure in the 1960s counterculture but has not directly affiliated himself with political movements, also called in the AARP interview for wealthy Americans to do more to create jobs.
