    Without knowing the musical and political climate at the time, and without knowing Dylan's future place in both camps, this disc is slight at best.

    At turns witty, sarcastic, evasive and chilling, Dylan's mercurial song-cycle takes listeners from the exuberant opener, through the sarcastic jibes of "Talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues" and into the bleak sorrow of "Ballad of Hollis Brown."

    Dylan has never sounded more convincing--and any true Dylan lover will have to seek out this album.
