| 4.0 excellent | lz41 | February 12th 14 | Fuelled by cheap cigarettes and a lotta moonshine and played in a dingy basement lit by flickering lightbulbs, 'The Basement Tapes' rolls together blues, country, folk, rock and a touch of jazz to create music that is truly 'Americana': the sounds here will take you from the sweltering deep south to waterfronts to cavernous cities to roadhouses on lonely desert roads. The songs are tall tales, travellin' stories, sea shanties, humorous anecdotes and slick soliloquys. Their general consistency is quite impressive, given the shambling bleariness of the recordings, and even the rare average ones have a charming, drunken warmth to them.

| 4.0 excellent | mike870 | March 12th 08 | At first I did not like this album and felt i had waisted my money, but i took another listen and found that it can be put up at the top with Dylan's other albums. The only thing i do not like is that it can after a while sound a little bit all the same. If your a Dylan fan get this album its great.
