my teacher played bob dylan in class one time in 8th grade. it wasn't that bad. i liked "times they are a-changin' " and that one song with "how many mountains must a man walk up" or something like that. didn't care too much for his voice, though, i gotta say. one-time deal for me.

The 2nd song would be "Blowin' in the Wind." Monkey's right, the style changes a lot, even from those two songs to 1965 with the release of Highway 61 Revisited. If you ever get a chance to check out Dylan from 1965 onwards, do it, I doubt you'll be disappointed.

Highway 61 Revisited and later is the best Dylan...
early 60's Dylan is a little dated for me...
|
| |
I like Dylan's early stuff a lot, haven't really heard his old stuff. His strongest aspect is his lyrics in my opinion, and from the review it sounds as though he kept his lyrical talent throughout his career. So, I will definately check it out. Good review.

this is one of dylans greatest albums, absolutley amazing, hurricanes a great song for beginner guitarists, violinists, and singers
|
| |
Yes, the contrasts between Dylans work in different time periods is apparent, but for me the greatest songwriter ever never produced work i dont like, expect maybe some of that mid 80's stuff.....
In terms of desire, I think its a great album, I love "Sara" and it was good that he was able to keep things going after Blood on the Tracks
|
| |
a good follow-up to blood on the tracks, which seemed pretty difficult to achieve. Yet, i think it has some counterpoints. Mozambique is catchy but little more (7/10); Romance in Durango is horrible IMO (3/10). On the other hand, Isis is wonderful to me (10/10) and I agree completely with One more cup... and Sister. Good review, and excellent album (8/10)

I love "Black Diamond Bay," such a great story.
Obviously "Hurricane" is a classic, "Mozambique" really rubs me the right way, I can't get enough of that song, and everything else is just solid Dylan music.

This is the best Dylan album ever, there's not one song that bores me, ever!!!
|

I think this is my favorite Dylan album now. "Black Diamond Bay" is so good.
I find it funny that the "Members Also Liked:" list is almost 100% made up of albums on my list. One of them being a Grind band :x

I think this is a bit overrated. It's definitely not up there with his best albums at all.

For a post-John Wesley Harding, it's amazing. It's not near as good to his Freewheelin'/The Times They Are A-Changin'/Another Side of Bob Dylan/Bringing it All Back Home/Highway 61 Revisited/ Blonde on Blonde streak, but it's much better than his stuff from Street Legal to Time Out of Mind

DEAR GOD!!! How can you call Isis a so- so song???? It's easily one my favfe Dylan songs, and I got about ten albums. Desire's one of his best, probabl;y his best of the 70s (I'm in the minority here, but I like it a little better than Blood on the Tracks).
Don't get me wrong though, good review!

Isis gets kinda boring after a few listens.
Hurricane still stands as one of Dylan's greatest songs.
|
| |
When I put this on (as I just did), I always skip "Hurricane." It doesn't have much of a melody, it has obvious lyrics, and it kind of goes on and on and on . . . .
I really think "Isis" is a great song.
I agree that "One More Cup of Coffee" is the best thing on this album.

Hate to be a party-pooper, but I think this is the worst Dylan album I've heard. It just seems so boring and false to me.

It's far from his best, but there are several brilliant songs here. Why does it seem false?
