Nice article. Might be good guy to watch
Pilly - "Its two discs contain a handful of how-could-he-not-release-that? outtakes (the superb "Dreamin' of You," and "Red River Shore," from the 1997 Time Out of Mind sessions); the first Robert Johnson cover he's released ("32-20 Blues"), plus live cuts, soundtrack songs and alternative versions of songs that reveal them in new light."
Aspen - sort of lightweight guy
"But the two takes here of “Mississippi,” a profound mediation on overcoming loneliness and regret, not only differ markedly from the original album version, but from each other. Each is acoustic and delightful — the first with a shuffling blues feel, the second with a twangy country tone. Dylan’s phrasing and emotion on each take is spell-binding."
Uncut - recommended (gotts grab the issue) - "
When we started recording, Dylan, basically, would just start some kind of a vamp going on the guitar. The whole band was out in the room, in contact with each other, there wasn’t a lot of separation. And Bob has a table in front of him, with pages and pages and pages of lyrics, and he would just start some kind of a thing going on the guitar, and we’d all fall in behind him, and just start jamming. And as soon as he kinda liked what was happening, he’d start picking up lyrics, going through the pages, and just start trying to sing it over whatever we were doing. If he didn’t care for that one after a while, he’d put it down, pick up another page, and start trying something with that. So, literally, we just jammed." (Paul would love this.)
