Desire [Columbia, 1975]

In the great tradition of Grand Funk Railroad, Dylan has made an album beloved by tour devotees--including those who were shut out of Rolling Thunder's pseudocommunitarian grooviness except via the press. It is not beloved by me. Although the candid propaganda and wily musicality of "Hurricane" delighted me for a long time, the deceitful bathos of its companion piece, "Joey," tempts me to question the unsullied innocence of Rubin Carter himself. These are not protest songs, folks, not in the little-people tradition of "Hattie Carroll"; their beneficiaries are (theoretically) wronged heroes, oppressed overdogs not unlike our beleaguered superstar himself. And despite his show of openness, our superstar may be feeling oppressed. His voice sounds viscous and so do his rhymes, while sisters Ronee and Emmylou sound distinctly kid, following the leader as if they're holding onto his index finger. More genuinely fraternal (and redeeming) are the pained, passionate marital tributes, "Sara" and "Isis." B-

It's OK when black people say it. What are you on?

>>71874876
The lyrics seem like a rejected Hollywood movie script.

Can we all agree that it's the worst Dylan song ever? maybe just the way the hook is sung.
JOOOOOEEEEEY!

>>71874899
That's because it was mostly written by Jacques Levy who was a scriptwriter
>>71874910
No, it's fine.

>>71874910
If you think this is his worst, you've never heard some of his 80s songs like "Sweetheart Like You".

I corrected myself and said the hook was terrible. There's some good stuff from the 80's but most of it is horrible.

Desire came out in the 70s. Are you retarded?

The Christgau review did criticize Dylan's vocals on this album desu. They are a little on the forced side.

I was replying to the second guy you fucking idiot.

>>71874983
Then whyd you tag my post you numbskull

>>71875505

>>71875516
So you don't know how to reply to people properly?

No wonder you can't into Desire

You're retarded. Desire is a great album. Joey is not a good song.

>I don't like it, so it's not good

That's what I meant. If you like it then you like it. Idiot.

Nice backpedaling

In the Court of the Crimson King [Atlantic, 1969]
The plus is because Peter Townshend likes it. This can also be said of The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Beware the forthcoming hype--this is ersatz shit. D+
