incredible classic folk music. i am a huge fan of live recordings and the songs that are prove to be no exception. dylan comes in for - one of my favourite renditions of - It Ain't Me Babe and of course the crowd looses their shit, which is very funny. i love this album. saying that is a bit redundant because i wouldn't be blogging if i didn't, but it bears repeating. I LOVE THIS ALBUM!!
i hope you are well, friend.

This album is one of the most powerful, ballad-filled, folk albums to date. I'll say it. She did it better than Bob Dylan. Her impression of him in Simple Twist of Fate combined with the knowledge that they dated makes it both hilarious and heart-breaking. Highly recommend if you are dramatic and fun.

I love “Desolation Row,” and I’m always happy when Bob passes the ten minute mark. we got:
“Key West (Philosopher Pirate)” — a dreamy meditation on life and finding meaning in the margins on the world “Sad-eyed Lady of the Lowlands”— the world’s prettiest haunted love song “Brownsville Girl” — in running for funniest song ever. a guy describing a movie he can’t quite remember, and a road trip with a lost love, while the stories bleed together like repeating dreams. made complete by Kanye-style blasts of gospel choir. “Highlands” — a guy wanders around and flirts/argues with a diner waitress? ok idk this one is for the heads.
And of course “Murder Most Foul” — 17 minutes of Fiona Apple piano and Bob narrating the moment of JFK’s demise, a nation betrayed and sentenced to pay, its cultural history collapsing in on itself at the start of a new age.
