Release Notes:
The music of Bob Dylan has been profoundly touched by the blues
genre.., from his first album to his latest "Modern Times". Either
in song construction or in mood, Dylan's songs continually call on
the genre, drawing from the primal power of America's most
significant roots music. This collection centers on blues-tinged
material drawn from Dylan albums beginning with 1965's Bringing It
All Back Home (She Belongs to Me) and ranging to 2003's Love and
Theft (High Water). If the rough-edged quality of Dylan's voice in
the later selections betrays the hand of time, his intensity and
commitment on each of these classic tracks seems undiminished.
From the laid-back groove of It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a
Train to Cry to the spiritual fervor of Gotta Serve Somebody to
the lonesome wail of Blind Willie McTell, Dylan makes brilliant
use of the striking musical, lyrical, and "above all" emotional
resources of the blues to intensify his personal statements. This
stirring collection makes us glad that Dylan has an unshakable
case of the blues.
