Gates_of_Eden's Album Review for Blood on the Tracks

""
Best Album of All Time
This is Dylans Strongest Album in almost every way. It leads of with arguably his most well-known song besides like a rolling stone, Tangled Up in Blue. After that we begin to hear a couple songs that are presumeably about his divorce with his wife. The first one, Simple Twist of Fate is brilliant, very sorrowful and delivered with passion by Dylan. Your a Big Girl Now is a bit of a mystery to me. Musicaly it has some evident spanish themes in the guitar, and lyrically it is most likely about his ex-wife in some way but I can't tell. Idiot Wind is the most powerful song on the album. It's Dylan at his angriest and most bitter. He spits out the lyrics with anger. A little later on in the album Lily Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts is one of the most unique story songs ever written, unlike anything I have ever heard. If You See Her, Say Hello is one of Dylans most passionat, heartfelt songs, where he describes not bing able to get over his seperation with his wife. So clearly this is a record for the ages.

Album Review for Bob Dylan - Modern Times
I Love this CD Every time I leave the house I play this one. I spent many years in MN. Two winters ago at Elbow Lake not far from Hibbing, MN. Bob Dylan has always been one of my very favorite.

This set definitely does highlight another side of Bob Dylan. Though this album isn't as thematically strong as the Freewheelin Bob Dylan or The Times They Are A-Changin', this is a good set of tunes.

Bob Dylan's first compilation is some of Dylan's finest, and possibly the only thing a casual listener might need. It doesn't have the depth that another release might have, but it satisfies.
