JackSJul 26, 2007One song was enough for me. I have tried many, many times to like Bob Dylan, but I never understood the appeal of vocals that sound his testes are in vice grips. Maybe it is an acquired taste. Maybe I do not have good taste. It does not matter. Dylan to me sounds like crap.

Dec 18, 2019Dylan never made it and all of his records were bad, were terrible. Highway 61 is a scam. Blonde on Blonde is return to sender. the Basement Tapes is a Hoax, Blood on the Trax is a snoozer. Virtually anybody with a guitar and some pipes can do this.
Awards & Rankings

"Love and Theft" sees Dylan roaring back from Highway 61 at full bore, reminding us -- as he did on Blonde on Blonde, The Basement Tapes, and Blood on the Tracks -- that, like him or not, there isn't anybody else who can do his job.

MojoAn album virtually bereft of fluff and filler. [Album Of The Month] [Oct 2001, p.104]

SpinWhere [Time Out Of Mind] stared down heartbreak and mortality with somber melancholy, Love and Theft finds Dylan taking on those same themes loaded up with piss and vinegar. [Nov 2001, p.127]
