Sounds pretty cool, and i’ll definitely be getting the album on its release, but I still want to hear another full blown ‘folk’ album akin to his early work. I have doubts that this will ever happen now though.

It’s cool, but I’m disappointed that he’s so blatently lifted the tune of Otis Rush’s “All Your Love (I Miss Lovin)”…

Let’s give credit where credit is due. The cover image on the new one is by Bruce Davidson (from “Brooklyn Gang”); the one on Modern Times by Ted Croner.

The guitar sounds a bit like Marc Ribot. I think thats where a lot of people are getting the Waits comparison.

A bit more on j.neas’ reference to the film of Big Bad Love – it’s an excellent work of art by actor/directo Howard Arliss, and the soundtrack features some excellent contemporary delta blues by RL Burnside, T-Model Ford, Kenny Borwn, and Junior Kimbrough. Plus tunes by Tom Verlaine, Steve Earle, and the aformentioned Mr. Waits. Burnside’s take on Dylan’s Everything’s Broken serves the song well. This is a great movie filled with extraordinary music, where the tunes are an essential part of the film’s sound and feel. Arliss channel’s Brown with gritty, slightly surrealistic urgency that creates a swampy delta darkness. Not to be missed.

This sounds good. Speaking of the late Larry Brown, the film adaptation of one of the short stories in that collection, titled Big Bad Love after the collection, is a pretty good film in its own right and worth seeing. Plus it has Tom Waits on the soundtrack. See? We all move in circles.

Artists change and Dylan is one of the best. He’s been drinking burbon and hanging out in sweaty bars. Good boy.
