Blog Posts About Bob Dylan
- The Golden Bird (I Don’t Love Nobody)
- “This idea that the road to truth and beauty runs adjacent to a verge of madness is essential late seventies Dylan.”
- As Good As He’s Been To Us (Dylan.FM)
- “Bob Dylan has decided to make another folk record thrown together with the same kind of bravura and carefree chutzpah (at least it looks that way) as Bob Dylan was: mixing styles and nationalities of songs, sexes and classes of narrators in a way that is both refreshing and dynamic.”
- All The Tired Horses (Untold Dylan)
- “If everyone around you in the world is just run down and going over the same old ground, it is hard to pick yourself up. So you look elsewhere – which on the album Dylan does perfectly soon after with his beautiful rendition of Alberta.”
- Dylan’s Favorite Songs: Lawyers Guns & Money (Untold Dylan)
- “So looking at the song’s lyrics it is simple: exactly the opposite of Dylan’s work, and yet it is equally stunningly brilliant.”
- Dylan’s Favorite Songs: Sundown (Untold Dylan)
- “Here the opening tells us all: acoustic guitar, bass and gentle percussion. The only surprise we get is the second line of the chorus with the harmonies.”
- Dylan and Orwell (Clifford Thurlow)
- “It was 1963. Dylan and Orwell were a double dose of surrealism, absurdism, politics, existentialism and the dread of popularism. I was 15 now and the boy was vanishing into the man.”
- I’ve Made Up My Mind To Give Myself To You (Pt.10) (Untold Dylan)
- “A Neapolitan mandolin and a half-hidden marimba conjure the image of a lone figure sitting in a waterside café on a warm evening, while male voices hum a four-note melody behind him.”

- Shadows In The Night (Cult Following)
- “Similar in tone to Fallen Angels but soothing in its immediacy, this creative display of new perspectives on old classics is just what Dylan needed before he embarked on Triplicate.
- The Australian Connection: Masterpieces (Pt.2) (And Now It’s All This)
- “Meanwhile, back in Australia there is a story that in 1978 a beer company ran a special promotion whereby purchasers of a 24-can carton could get a free copy of Masterpieces! The story may well be apocryphal, but I feel it really ought to be true.”
- Dylan’s First Visit to Glasgow in 1966 (Glasgow World)
- “Frank Carolan, who was present at the gig, says the minority intent on spoiling the second half of the gig that night left him scratching his head.”
