This review is from: Bringing It All Back Home (Rm) (Audio CD)

This album is so many things at once it's hard to keep up. It's one of Dylan's most important albums, because it shows him shifting from folk to rock; it represents a point where his breathtaking creativity was hitting its stride; and it is, moment for moment, one of his best albums--some would argue, musically, it presents the most representative picture of his work of any disc.

Thank goodness the remastering process has given us this revelatory new recording of such a classic. The new clarity of the sound allows the deceptively simple complexity of the instrumentation on the album to shine, and Dylan's voice is shocking. He doesn't just deliver the lyrics--he's actually singing! Many Dylan recordings did his work, and his voice, little justice, but the original transfer of Bringing It All Back Home was among the worst. If you only buy one of the 15 new remastered hybrid super audio CDs, this is the one to get. From the subversive opening notes of "Subterranean Homesick Blues" to the quiet closing strains of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue," this album is a gem not only of artistic genius but of the power of a dedicated remastering effort.

2.0 out of 5 stars Okay but not much else., Jun 12 2004

Ive never really liked early Bob Dylan except or a few songs.I mean hes a talented writer in that he can write words that go well with each other but sadly his early work just doesnt speak to me except for the more well known tracks.It just all sounds like a bunch of nonsense that isnt even amusing.I think this album is a waste of time to listen to except for a few songs and I dont understand what is so good about it.Its boring.

One of Dylan's 3 best recordings from the 1960s and marked his complete break with the folk movement. Just a 5.
