A subdued answer to the artistic explosion that was Blonde on Blonde, John Wesley Harding heralded the coming age of country rock and thumbed its nose at the psychedelic excess being forged in San Francisco and London.

While listening to this, I went from hating it to actually liking it on par with his early stuff I like. I really wish they would have put more effort into the recording of the first 4 tracks.

EDIT: Drifter's Escape and Dear Landlord had some musical strength.

Please don't say this comment sucks because you disagree... but this is Dylan's worst music ever put on album. This is just my honest opinion. If you disagree, great, but my opinion is equally valid. The vocals, bass, drums often play bad notes, at times can't keep time and the performance on this album just pure sucks. Which is unfortunately often the complaint against Dylan.

So glad Hendrix covered All Along the Watchtower...

As for the storytelling... great... go write a book.

A step back in sound but in a successful way. Great storytelling.

Dylan takes a step back, catches his breath, and surprises us with the unpretentious, natural sound. Starting his country dalliances, Dylan proves he's still got it.

Slightly better then Desire and Nashville Skyline, but same type of album. Good, solid, unspectacular Dylan.
