 Rating:  - Plays Guthrie but the real Dylan pokes through.A majority of the album is him and his talent but about 1/3 of the album is him singing as country folk in the same vein as Woody Guthrie does. That part of the album annoys me for the most part it is not his persona at all, his personality is way more complex and deep. The Rolling Stones kind of did the same thing, the difference is they were just doing covers of other people's songs. They broke out of that habit like Dylan after a couple of albums. Rating: - On Inventing Bob DylanIn 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).

There are so many good songs on it and Dylan's voice is so strong... It's a crime to say he couldn't sing, some people just don't get it. I'm totally pleased and riding along. Rating: - Outstanding Music by The Minnesota Kid Who Helped Wake Up a CountryBack in 1962 I was a high school sophomore at Lakewood High School in Lakewood, California, a bed city just north of Long Beach and East of L.A. Bob Dylan was only a kid then too. The music he made wasn't a bit like what they'd been playing on the top forty and none of the songs on this record made the hit parade, but the record made it to my house, as I was kind of into folk music. Man, like I was digging the Kingston Trio and Glenn Yarborough back then, but right from the get go I knew this was different. ... Read More |
