chriscolbert Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 (edited) On a certain "mini" torrent site. I'm not a hardcore Dylan guy, so I'm hoping someone can confirn that all the songs are legit. It only took me like five minutes to download so if your curious you should check it out.

solace Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 there's a poor sounding 128kbps rip, make sure to stay away from that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imsjry Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 there's a poor sounding 128kbps rip, make sure to stay away from that So this thing has leeked and not one review on it here?? What's up with that? I had no idea it was out there... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oatmealblizzard Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 This was up on oink for a little while tonight, and I was able to grab it. I think it was the low quality version solace mentioned earlier, though....and now its been taken down. Nonetheless, I'm liking it so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Adam2 Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 i really like it. some of it is great right off the bat, some feel like growers. the album has a good deal of blues, much like Love and Theft. there are also jazzy ballads, similar to Moonlight. the tracks do seem a bit long with an average time of about 4 minutes.

froggie Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 i liked this one much more than L&T on first listen. its coming out on saturday here and i cant wait to get my hands on a proper copy of it. faves so far are, workingman's blues, aint talking, nettie moore and thunder on the mountain. cant stand beyond the horison though!

muller Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 First listen through and im definately prefering it to Love & Theft. I could never really get into that record... Favourites so far are Thunder On The Mountain, Rollin' And Tumblin' and Workingmans Blues 2. His voice is sounding nice and the band are on top form. Cant wait to get the offical CD/DVD combo through the post. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Welsh Rich Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 I'll third(?) the motion that I'm liking it more than Love & Theft... there music isn't over the top, it's nicely realised... there's obviously plenty going on but it doens't detract from the songs. On the first couple of tracks I thought Dylan sounded very croaky, but as it goes on its as if his voice mellows and gets into it. Highlights are definitely Rollin' And Tumblin' and Workingmans Blues 2... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is Chicago Is Not Chicago Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 how exciting to hear first impressions. I'm a big fan of love and theft so this sounds wonderful. Although I am holding out till tuesday till it comes out here (week from today!) I waited 5 years, holding out another 7 days of eagerness won't kill me.... all praise be to bobby!

Synthesizer Patel Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Only really had a chance to listen to it through once, but it's pretty damn good so far. I don't think the playing is quite as strong as on Love & Theft nor the production, which is odd because Dylan produced them both. Maybe my mind will change on that, but all the same it's good stuff. Don't know how Froggie can't like Beyond The Horizon though, that's one of the ones I like a lot.

TheMaker Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Blast. I was hoping that a 320 kps rip has surfaced! At any rate, I think this record isn't nearly as strong as L&T or TOOM, if only because Dylan doesn't seem to have much to say this time out. The four blooze rockers are mostly disposable, and the love songs are very straightforward. That said, the production is very impressive, and he's wrung expert performances out of his current road band that I frankly didn't think possible. His singing is also much more expressive and better controlled than on the last record (although he generally sounds quite geriatric and growls like a werewolf on some of the rockers). Also, the handful of songs that are great tend to be friggin' brilliant. Nettie Moore is astonishing; I'm loving the minimal arrangement and haunting strings. Workingman's Blues has a great melody and fantastic words that seem to operate on a number of levels, and Ain't Talkin' is a sinister song that slithers along like a snake through a swamp (woo, I made a rhyme without even trying). So far I'm really enjoying it - it's downright brilliant by any other artist's standards - but I don't think it's worthy of the last two. To paraphrase Jeff Daniels' character in The Squid and the Whale, "Minor Dylan, not to be taken seriously." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
