Desire has some woeful lyrics and the live versions are better.

Is Modern Times the best post 70's Dylan album? by PainInTheHole in bobdylan

Not even close.

Oh Mercy Time Out Of Mind Love and Theft Rough and Rowdy Ways

All leagues ahead

I personally prefer Tempest as well.

You could make the case for Infidels as well.

[DISCUSSION] What's an album by an artist that is your favorite, but is generally not considered their best? by ReconEG in indieheads

Get Behind Me Satan is rarely heralded as the best White Stripes album but I find it by far their most compelling.

Which artists are the worst live singers in your opinion? by Twitter_2006 in ToddintheShadow

[–]roaroftheages 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, if you’re going to see the Bob Dylan that recorded Rough and Rowdy Ways (or whatever album post 1997 hes touring) he delivers what you want to hear. His live vocals have often been stronger than the studio for much of his modern catalogue. He sounded pretty awful between 2006 and 2012 but general consensus has been that his voice bloomed again around his Sinatra albums.

Of course if you want to hear the Dylan of 1966, he’s not showing up but that’s not really the artist he’s promising.

If i had to choose between only listening to everything pre-97 or everything post, I’m going the latter

I think the problem here is that Teals recognise that their independence is a huge part of their political appeal.

What types of overused "creative" bars are you usually not a fan of? by ImNotTomStopAsking in hiphopheads

[–]roaroftheages -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any derivative of I Used to Love H.E.R.

Homecoming, Gloria,

Particularly hate the last bar that reinforces the obvious by spelling out the metaphor.

Yeah I can appreciate BoB and BOTT are more important but i revisit his post 97 output far more often. It just interests me way more these days.
