I agree with you 100%. That is my favorite of all his solo albums...well,
it was until SHRUNKEN HEADS came along.
That album is pure magic.
From "Rule Brittania" to "Irene Wilde" to the presence of Queen on one
track....it's a masterpiece.
The re-release is even all the better....sometimes bonus tracks can be a bit
ho hom...but this one has enough bonus tracks to make
a fine album in their own right. |

I'm heading to LA to see Ian Hunter...want a 12 String guitar...and well, |
that all adds up.
When do I sleep?
I'll sleep when I'm dead (at least that what it feels like these days)....
Truth be told, having a four day weekend helped out a lot.....I can write an
album description, including reviews from others, in about five to ten
minutes. |

Petty is a man among musicians, Sprigsteen can't even carry a note, much
less play a guitar.
He should stay with the bongo's and play sub-african native songs. He needs
a good reed players though, who in New York had a big mouth.....Let's see,
PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE!

I'll bet he did. Looking back on it, SHOT OF LOVE is an album that I
can
keep
playing and go for days without taking it out of the machine.
Knowing it's
from that
era makes me lament those sessions not being released even more.
Strange
thing
about that album. When it first came out "Groom's Still Waiting at
the
Altar"...that was
a B-side, wasn't it? Now it's on the CD, for which I'm glad. I wish
they'd
done
same with "Blind Willie McTell" and the INFIDELS album.
"yes GROOM was added after the fact, i like SHOT OF LOVE but it bombed
when it first came out and led to BOB takin a break. INFIDELS is not
one of
my favorite BOB records. and BLIND WILLIE he didnt put out on account
he though he didnt record correctly and i agree with BOB on that. to
this day
it got a STILTED ARRANGEMENT and sound to it. INFIDELS sound too cold
KNOPFLER said BOB went into the studio after he left and remixed and
overdubbed and
messed it up, which he probably did."
I remember SHOT OF LOVE getting a lukewarm (at best) reception.
Never could understand that. That album has some gems..."Shot of
Love,"
"Lenny Bruce"
"In the Summertime," not to mention "Every Grain of Sand," which is as
lovely a song as he's ever
penned.
INFIDELS...that one's a mixed bag for me. At its best, it delivers a
KO
with songs
such as "Jokerman" (even a quarter of a century later, that song still
makes
my head
spin.....it's almost like a modern day Sermon on the Mount, something
that
takes a lifetime to
absorb and comprehend), "License to Kill"...."Sweetheart Like You".."I
and
I"...."Don't Fall Apart
on Me Tonight"...all solid songs. It loses me a bit with
"Neighborhood
Bully" and "Union Sundown"...but
even those are interesting enough. It always sounded fine to my
ears....and
even better after it got
the remastered treatment with that box of Bob.
I love the arrangement and sound of "Blind Willie McTell".....one of
my
favorite songs for Dylan's
piano playing. I'm sure you've heard the electric version of that
song...do
you prefer that one?
It's still powerful, but I think it loses something compared to the
piano/guitar version that
was officially released. With folk such as Dylan, I generally don't
make a
Top 10 or 20 or 50 list....
his work can't be that easily pigeon-holed. I mean, I'd put "Blood in
My
Eyes" or "Two Soldiers" right up there with the
best of his songs even though he didn't write them. But "Blind Willie
McTell"....he must have had a mighty
lofty mark toward which he was aiming, because just the sound of that
song
conjures up ghosts...and ghosts that you'd just as soon
leave in stillness. It's one of those things that you could hear
playing in the background and suddenly your hair would be standing up
on the
back of your neck without knowing why.
So, based on "Blind Willie McTell" and "Jokerman," alone, I can
understand
why the INFIDELS sessions are so highly regarded.
All in all, I don't look at the eighties as being quite as bleak as a
lot of
folks, including Bob himself, seem to make
it for his work. SAVED, SHOT OF LOVE, INFIDELS...and good chunks of
EMPIRE
BURLESQUE and KNOCKED
OUT LOADED...all kept me captive. And then he ended that decade with
OH
MERCY, which is as fine an
album as any in my book.
Absolutely.
All in all, a decade that gave the world songs
Soundtracks to life, those records were... skipping out of work at lunch
from the lumberyard to pick up Shot of Love from the nearby Turtles Records,
after a month of reading hints that Columbia didn't even want to release it,
and /didn't/ in the intended double... and gawking at the Litchenstein-goofy
Batman /zamp-pow/ of the cover art, and the amazing poetics of ''In The
Summertime'' and the other cuts, great then and still so, though I haven't
heard it in years...
Infidels on that bitterly cold first night of listening, in my barn room out
in the country at my granfather's farm, so cold the turntable was
half-frozen, and the record would slow down then speed up weirdly...
The strange sad times in the spring of 1985 when I first played Empire
Burlesque and a passing redneck girl came up to the front door and asked
''Is that The Clash...'' which many locals had heard and heard about through
raggae styled covers me and my comrades P.D. Wilson, John E. Jonsey et al
ballyhooed to the oblivious streets of Shadowville...
''A decade that gave the world songs', indeed.
such as "In the Garden," "Pressing On," "Covenant Woman," "Solid
Rock,"
"Shot of Love," "Angelina," "Lenny Bruce," "Every Grain of Sand,"
"Jokerman," "Blind Willie McTell," "Dark Eyes," "Something's
Burning,"
"I'll Remember You," "Dark Eyes," "Brownsville Girl," "New Danville
Girl,"
"Sylvio," "Congratulations," "Man in the Long Black Coat," "Ring Them
Bells," "Most of the Time," "Political World," "Shooting Star" and
those are
just the ones that come to mind off the top of my head...some who've
been
given the title of "great" haven't accumlated such a ...
i love SHOT OF LOVE it has warm SOUL MUSIC/R and B type sound to it,
that what was BOB was into at the tine. INFIDELS he abandoned for a
COMMERCIAL sound, the songs i like fine the SOUND I DISLIKE. EMPIRE
BURLESQUE is the worst BOB album of all time worse songs and worse
production.
KOL and DING were good,BOB doin the soul music sound that he liked at
the time knowin they werent going to sell.
With Empire Burlesque on my mind last night while in Atlanta, it was
cool to find discussion on it in present-time... long story short on
that, there doesn't seem to be a copy available out there on CD
anyhwere available in a store within at least 200 miles, as none of
the major stores there had a copy, used /or/ new... a shame, but the
record does get a bad rap overall.
The ''Miami Vice'' sound on the production, of course... but to me
some of Dylan's best songs and vocals. Sure would be great -but
unlikely- if one of the Bootleg Series volumes would be the ''naked''
original tracks as he produced them himself.

''When the Night Comes Falling'', esp. the version with the E Street Band,
I'd put on that list, as well.

WHEN THE NITE COMES FALLIN as released on EB is totally unlistenable,
almost a parody. DARK EYES plays like he wrote it in about 1 minute, a
bad song. SOMETHING is BURNING has a decent march type of vibe to it
but 100% dummy lyrics. EMOTIANLLY YOURS, ILL REMEMBER YOU and TIGHT
CONNECTION are the only decent songs.
the whole album sounds like had a record co deadline to meet. |
