Reverend Sub-Zero posted:Has anyone checked on Dylan recently? Dylan: 4 rows back on 5/15/15. He can actually still croon the unplugged stuff, but uptempo and trying to sing over the band gets embarrassing. He's another one that will never, ever stop. He'll go out busking if necessary. David: Everyone says hi.

Tonight should have been an EP, as it was a little light and the filler is obvious and plentiful. Still, Blue Jean was kind of an event, as long form music videos were fairly rare on MTV at the time. Only a handful of artists had the juice to get them played. Loving The Alien borrowing from Laurie Anderson's O Superman was a masterstroke; I don't know if he ever acknowledged it, but he was always pretty forthcoming about citing influences. NMLD is where I part ways with most critics. It was bright, shrill, and fatiguing, but it was of its time and I'm sure that clouds my objectivity. It must, because I have no problems with Too Dizzy, which he pulled from future pressings either due to a songwriting credit or because he was embarrassed by it, depending on who you believe. I do hope some of these mid-tier efforts benefit from the super deluxo treatments and "vault finds" that are sure to come. This is an artist whose out/alternate takes would actually be interesting.

Never let me down never let me down. Actually, I've had blackstar on repeat for 3 days (Google briefly had it for 75% off) and the first observation I made about "I can't give" was that it would be right at home on nlmd. What a great record start to finish, regardless of the circumstances. Btwn and jump have killer chord progressions and choruses but suffer from instrumentation choices that had a short shelf life. Did he not, however, get ahead of the whole guest/featuring rapper/soul artist phenom by about a decade, REM notwithstanding? Never mind me though, I get my facts from Benetton ads.
