I'm not a fan of Bob Dylan at all (except that song about The Hurricane, cause he swears in it) but this was damn good. Surprisingly good, will be giving part 2 a listen early next week.
As for Robert Christgau, yeah his reviews are either wrong or totally nonsensical. There's a site with hundreds of his reviews and when I want to feel some pain, I look up artists and read what he says about their albums. I swear some of the stuff he says is so out there, I almost get lost. What is he trying to say?
And then when he pans an artist I like, I just wanna choke something cause he's WRONG!
I have Slow Train Coming and its a great great album in my opinion. Its really about his conversion to Chritianity, but its also, kinda sorta, a Dire Straits album as well. Classic tunes!
I like the feel of this too! Kinda sounds like he's got a renewed focus.
Golden Pell goes to the second track! RJ is wrong.
This was a, wait what was it? Oh yeah, A very nice listen...
Mike, you know I don't claim to be a Dylan fan, but this was a decent little listen. I can promise I would have never heard any of this album anywhere else. So thanks for that.
I'll give the Golden Pell to that opening track (you're too slow this week Scott).
And I did like some of the guitar work in the other two tunes.
I can definitely hear the distraction in your voice. I think I'm familiar with sadness that you are referring to, so I can certainly understand why you would be distracted. It's been 5 years, and they say time heals all pain. Hopefully you are doing a little better these days. Thanks again for posting your shows at CRB. It was definitely a stroke of genius on my part () to steal you away from you know where.
