Re: Dylan Goes "Modern"

Woo-hoo! If the quality of this upcoming outing matches his last two albums of new material, it'll be a time to celebrate! Not to mention that Paul Simon has put out a top-notch album this year as well!

Most of the best music I'm hearing these days is being done by people over 60...what does that say about our times?

Re: Dylan Goes "Modern"

anybody heard it?
I guess so since I guess it went to number one. whodda thunk?
anybody like it?
I like it maybe even better than 'Love and Theft', it's not as personal but it really sounds rugged and I haven't liked his guitar playing as much in ages.

Re: Dylan Goes "Modern"

Haven't had time to really get into it but I rather liked what I have heard. Maybe this weekend I'll just put off all other stuff to have a "musical" holiday. I've got CDs that have been bought and not yet opened collecting dust!!!

I have gone through the songs and the one that jumps out at me is "Ain't Talkin". It's kinda long but it's a pretty good song.

All in all, I like MODERN TIMES very much, but can't quite go so far as to say it is better than LOVE AND THEFT. Not yet, anyway--more listens behind me (I've got five so far, I think), and I may change my mind.

Re: Dylan Goes "Modern"

I would love to but this one too, and you all say you liked it.... Must be really good. I'll have to wait on it though, cause I can't afford squat now :(

Re: Dylan Goes "Modern"

one thing I like about getting a new dylan album is going back to the older ones.
maybe I'm just a fickle sort but I find myself liking ones I never liked too much (Street Legal) better than the ones I thought I liked more (Infidels)

funny how that works sometimes.
