If he'd hired a studio guitarist to do the work I doubt the tune would have been as good. Maybe they were intentionally flubbed, who can question Dylan? That must be the answer, he intentionally flubbed the picking, the tonal qualities, the use of bad English, (I ever knowed) sucking harmonica, did I miss anything? BTW Must be time for Diamonds and Rust now. [ Reply ]

Yes, even the 14 minute saga-cum-tedium title track (about the RMS Titanic) is a wonder to behold. I liken his output of the last fifteen years to Johnny Cash's American series. Time Out of Mind, Modern Times, Love and Theft, Together Through Life , and now Tempest are statements of an artist who has nothing left to prove and then goes out an reaffirms why he is perhaps the foremost American voice of the last half-century. Everybody in my church loves this old classic song and the classic album it's from, as well as Dylan's latest album, which is also truly brilliant... [ Reply ]

kingart Feb 08, 2012 - 11:35	1963! Jay-sus. This album was "new" when I was a kid, as all of Dylan's music past and current was in the turntable and rock radio rotation. Guess it's old fart time for me. As for those of you yammering about Dylan's singing voice, same has been said of Neil Young, for one, right here. Singer-songwriters of that caliber turn it to their advantage. It clearly has worked for them. Who is more renowned or durable then they? [ Reply ]

All the same, your comment stands so beautifly ignorant all on it's own I hate to touch it. I am human though, so let me underline it's stupidity - you're wrong. 10 songs fly off the top of my head right now where at his absolute shining best he elevates life, brings everyday experiences to heights not before known. Tangled Up in Blue is the most obvious one. Another, never played here so you don't know it, is Dylans Dream on this same album. There are dozens like this I'm sure. If you've never heard his stuff don't make stupid comments like that. It's obvious to those of us who do listen and misleading to others who might. [ Reply ]
