Who says 68 is too old for a number one album? Together Through Life is Bob Dylan’s 33rd studio album, and it’s filled with nice surprises. For the first time since his 1976 album Desire, Dylan works with a co-lyricist in Robert Hunter, who is best known for his work with the Grateful Dead. He utilizes Mike Campbell of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers on guitar, along with David Hidalgo from Los Lobos, who adds some really beautiful accordion playing. Dylan’s voice is deep and rusty and he sounds like he knows things you will never imagine…which he probably does. Also included is a reworked Willie Dixon song (“My Wife’s Home Town”), and some terrific sounding blues numbers. The band itself makes this worth hearing.

Of course, Dylan has long ago run out of hit songs, and you won’t find one here. It’s okay…I doubt he was really looking for that. Dylan as a producer (Jack Frost is one of his pseudonyms) works very nicely. “Beyond Here Lies Nothin’” is a fine opener and sets the pace, while tracks like “I Feel A Change Comin’ On” showcases Campbell and Hidalgo intertwining guitar and accordion. This album did debut at number one on the charts not just in America, but also in Britain. For good reason. This may not be the Dylan of the sixties and seventies, but it’s proof that you don’t sleep on this guy. Together Through Life is not perfect, but that’s also part of its charm. It’s a fine record by maybe the greatest songwriter of his generation, and we could all stand to take a listen and maybe learn something from one of the true masters.

Engine Down came out of Richmond, Virginia in 1995. They were part of the post hardcore scene in Washington D.C. that included bands like The Dismemberment Plan and Faraquet. They were also considered an emo band. Guitarist and frontman Keeley Davis played for a time with the better known Richmond band At The Drive In, as well as with about a half a dozen other bands that released albums. Engine Down released four albums between 1997 and 2004 (this was the last of the four) before splitting up in 2005, largely unnoticed. There’s not a lot wrong with this self titled effort, but there’s also not too much that’s right, either. Were they out of ideas, or were they simply bored? It’s kind of hard to tell.

Engine Down does rock…and there are spots where they sound pretty great. But the songs, in the end, are ordinary. Nothing here stands out and makes you want to play that one again, but nothing will make you reach for the skip button, either. This record will grow on you, albeit slowly. Question is, do you have the patience for it? This is at least worth a listen, to see if the music works for you. But I don’t think that all the repeat listens in the world would make this one of your all time favorites. There’s just not enough to hang your hat on. I would recommend this to fans of the scene in D.C. where they came from. There have been no hints or rumors of a reunion, so this will likely remain their swan song.
