 Rating:  - He Still Has So Much More To SayYes folks, this is indeed a pivotal work by perhaps the greatest songwriter of the post war "baby-boomer" generation. Here is where the cute folky Bobby Dylan, who sang of cannon balls firing and hard rain's fallin' came to extol the virtues of being "oh so much older then" and being "younger than that now". Just listen to the older more world weary 23 year old Bob Dylan singing about La Dolce Vita and a "Motocycle Nightmare" tale. "No No No It Ain't Me Babe"....But who exactly is this troubador ... Read More Rating:  - Dylan At The Crossroads In reviewing Bob Dylan's 1965 classic album Bringing All Back Home (you know, the one where he went electric) I noted that it seemed hard to believe now that both as to the performer as well as to what was being attempted that anyone would take umbrage at a performer using an electric guitar to tell a folk story (or any story for that matter). I further pointed out that it is not necessary to go into all the details of what or what did not happen with Pete Seeger at the Newport Folk Festival in ... Read More Rating: - The Dylan he was changin'By this point everything Bob Dylan touched turned to gold, but he weren't no kind of protest singer no more. He wasn't even going to record another acoustic album after this one. Hence the title: this isn't the second coming of Woody Guthrie you might have expected after Freewheelin' and Times. This other side of Dylan is that he's by turns playful and romantic, but if you want someone to tell you what ails the world and what to do about it then it most emphatically ain't him babe. He's running ...

It wouldn't be until advanced infantry training at Camp Pendleton a few months later that I'd be able to get my hands on it and give it a listen. I had a month's liberty before going to Pendleton, but frankly, as much as I liked Dylan back then, I had more important things to do. My first listen disappointed me, because I really liked the ... Read More Rating: - Sides of Dylan Triple Value!"All I Really Want to Do" was a track I admired from the "No Direction Home" film, so it was good to get it. "Black Crow Blues" reminds me of the piano in the Ghostbusters soundtrack. "Spanish Harlem Incident" is a very insightful work. "Chimes of Freedom" was so dense for me to get into. Buying a Bob Dylan CD is always good for a laugh. This one made me laugh. "I Shall Be Free No. 10" is the funniest thing I've heard him do, though I'm sure there is funnier stuff he's done out there (I'm ... Read More |
