Bob Dylan album: "Together Through Life"*

There's some interesting information about the rumored new Bob Dylan album in the print edition of the latest Rolling Stone.

 

Excellent news, the guy is on fire creatively these last few years. "Bob takes all of those disparate elements you hear and puts them into a track. But you can't put your finger on it - 'It sounds exactly like that.' That's why he's so original." That quote sums it up beautifully.

 

Great news!

Yes, please!

 

Modern Times 2. Im tired of this mode. Ok.. I got that out of my system.. or at least out of my fingers.

OF course Im buying it.. its Bob

 

With all due respect -- which Dylan mode would you like to hear?

AFAIK, the current 'late-model worldly troubadour' Dylan is the perfect summation of his entire career, and I have a hard time imagining a different incarnation, which is why I ask.

 

The article says

 

I know,, I know.. and I love it. Dont get me wrong. I am just ready to here a harder edged Dylan. A step up from some of the more rocking stuff on love and Theft. Hard to explain I guess. Like I said.. Im all over the album when it comes out. I just want something a bit more rockin' and not so safe.

 

Well, I need to learn to read dont I?

"You would never expect the record after Modern Times to sound like this"

This makes me feel better

I stand corrected !

 

My wallet continues to weep thinking about all the records I am going to have to buy this year. Put this one on the list too...

Thanks Bob.

 

Maybe its vinyl only...due to his distaste for digital sound quality.

 

"Modern Times" was recorded in digital. Christopher Shaw used ProTools for this one, as Bob was impressed by the speed with which Shaw could swap verses during the mixing session for "Across The Green Mountain".

 

wow, sounds great. Can't wait!

 

I can't believe this is coming in April.

Feels like a real gift to me--totally unexpected. Can't wait!

 

Right on!

Accordion! Nice.

 

I hope there's a deluxe edition for $129.00(includes a free poster)!!

 

Good Deal. Can't wait!

 

Ah, that makes perfect sense. There were moments that felt a little too safe on Modern Times for me as well. Sounds like you're looking for a bit more bite and a bit less creak.

With Bob, anything is possible....

 

I'm so glad to be alive while Bob Dylan's around and makin' records.

 

Wow--how naive am I. This never occured to me, but it probably should have. I'm willing to shell out the $$$ for a CD/DVD set. But please, Bob, don't let Sony put out a $100-plus "deluxe" version.

 

When is that S&G due to drop???

Any word on which Dylan albums are getting remastered??

So many questions.....

 

Is the S&G Live 69 the same album that was sold through Starbucks?

 

I'll definitely be getting this!

 

That's a great line. The most recent Bootleg Series caused me to re-evaluate Modern Times. Looking forward to this one.
