Everything that I liked about the other Dylan album is absent from this one.
OK, that might be a bit over the line, but still this was terrible. If you go back to read my post on his other entrance into the top 10, you'll read me defending all the people who only knew Dylan as a caricature Well this album was just that.
Since nobody reads this blog, I don't really feel the need to say anything redeeming about Blonde on Blonde, if you like it, the YOU post about it. I didn't think for a second this album is one of the TEN BEST OF ALL TIME. Screw you Rolling stone.
This is so bad, I'm doing my White Album review right now. screw waiting 'till tomorrow...

So I get the sense that you're taking in these albums that are deemed as "great" and trying your best to see what was "great" about them without taking the time to just listen to them, live with them, and not have to hold them up to the standards set forth before you. Blonde on Blonde is amazingly good. Now, it's not my point to try to convince you of that. I know more than anybody that personal taste runs wild. And no, nobody has to even like these albums that are considered "great" cause if they truly are that, then you SHOULD be able to pick it up and instantly be drawn into the music. At the same time, it's like you're just listening real quick and trying to get this review out asap when in actuality, the review never matters as much as the music. My only advice is to let it breathe...THEN write.
Thank Anonymous,
You're right. I'll try an take your advice as much as I can while writing future reviews.
Thanks for reading
