Album Notes Personnel: Bob Dylan (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Robbie Robertson (guitar); Charlie McCoy (harmonica); Hargus Robbins (piano); Al Kooper (organ); Kenneth Buttrey (drums); Henry Strzelecki, Jerry Kennedy, Joe South, Wayne Moss, Bill Aitken. Recording information: Columbia Recording Studios, Nashville, Tennessee (1966). Only a year after HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED, Dylan miraculously topped himself with further epigrams of surrealistic poetry and emotional intrigue. The pressure of a punishing touring schedule and high public profile helped drive him to an unbelievable fit of creativity as he spontaneously scribbled these gems in his hotel rooms. We were spoiled with a double album, more Dylan music than we had previously heard, yet still destined to endure. BLONDE ON BLONDE surrounds the folk-rock bard with the likes of Al Kooper, Robbie Robertson, Charlie McCoy and Kenny Buttrey, all seasoned musicians giving this album a relaxed confidence quite unlike the youthful energy of HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED. Decades later this album still rewards and surprises. A gigantic record in every sense.

I bought it for a friend who is mentally challenged and is a big fan of 60's and 70's music. He said the package came in good condition. Review ID: 10000000003376759 Was this review helpful? Report this review Blonde on BlondeThis presented an excellent opportunity to revisit a favorite album from the 60,s. I was a young guitar player when Dylan released this work and I can still remember srtuggeling with the chords and progressions. The lyrical content was overwhelming then and continues to provide inlays of images and concepts and feelings that both bring me back to that time and project me into the future. Dylan taught me to not be afraid to write a song that was over three minutes long. To the younger listener, I would recommend a listen as in 2006, it is difficult to locate a writer capable of providing this level of poetry-it remains an insperation. M.F.

Report this review  Bob Dylan Has More Fun with Blonde on BlondeReview created: 03/21/06 by: Pantagruel-- a member of Epinions and Top Reviewer in Music Pros: Bob Dylan at the top of his game Cons: "Rainy Day Women #12 and 35" Blonde on Blonde, Bob Dylan's 1966 all-electric follow-up to Highway 61 Revisited, starts off kind of slow with the loopy "Rainy Day Women #12 and 35." Bob Dylan plays sloppy harmonica fills over what sounds like a drunken Salvation Army Band. He cracks up a couple of times while he is singing, and you wonder if he is going to make it all the way through this novelty song. But he does--all the way to #2 on the Billboard pop chart, an indication of how popular he had become. Of course it didn't hurt that his play on words, about stoning and getting stoned, was a wink in the direction of the... Review ID: 10000000000859783 Blonde On Blonde--the Bob Dylan album I always return toReview created: 05/06/08 by: factotum -- a member of Epinions Pros: Great program of songs Cons: Somewhat careless remaster It has always seemed to me that words like "great" and "classic" are easy to throw around, since--unless you are using the latter term to describe an automobile--they lack strict, objective benchmarks. If you say X is great, it's your opinion and you are entitled to it. The closest thing I've ever come to as a way to quantify the enduring quality of a record is to count the number of copies you've owned of it down the years. I've owned at least four copies of Bob Dylan's 1966 album Blonde On Blonde so far. I played the first double LP copy that I owned of it to the point where it wouldn't... Review ID: 10000000007061056  Bob Dylan's Magnum Opus "Blonde On Blonde" Seems More Dated Than Masterful.Review created: 12/15/07 by: wlswarts -- a member of Epinions Pros: Lyrics, Generally richer musical sound than many early albums Cons: Singing is terrible, Music is repetitive-sounding and inspires narcolepsy In my continuing quest to listen to as many of the works of Bob Dylan as I can get my hands on, I cannot think of an album I was more looking forward to listening to than "Blonde On Blonde." Virtually every Dylan fan has told me at one point or another that this is his masterpiece, the definitive Dylan work one must listen to to understand his genius. In fact, all I knew about the album other than that was that it had the song "I Want You," a track I frequently argue artist Sophie B. Hawkins reintepreted as a vastly better track on her debut album "Tongues Review ID: 10000000006848201 Dylan's best - period!Review created: 10/15/00 by: jordango -- a member of Epinions Pros: 14 incredible songs! Cons: Might have wanted to do a few more takes of some of them. Picking Bob Dylan's best album (or should I say CD?) is a magical experience. There are so many good choices, including Blood on the Tracks in the 70s, Infidels in the 80s, and Time out of Mind in the 90s. But the 60s is when Dylan's creativity was at its height. Blonde on Blonde marks the third of an extraordinary quartet of recordings Another Side of Bob Dylan, Bringing it all Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde. When Dylan wrote "I got a head full of ideas that are driving me insane" on "Maggie's Farm" he wasn't kidding! Most of the 14 songs on Blonde on Blonde are about... Review ID: 10000000000218142 Surprisingly, not a blonde porno movieReview created: 10/17/00 by: Daniel_Rf -- a member of Epinions Pros: your debutant just knows what you need Cons: but *I* know what you want! Released shortly after Rock music became intelectualised, this album is normally considered to be Dylans finest, and one of the major turning point of popular music. So, what s behind the hype? Well... Although Dylans style is more commonly referred to as Folk-Rock, this album has a much more bluesy feel to it. You wouldn t know it from the ramshackle Rainy Day Women Nos 12 Review ID: 10000000000218143 Epinions.com ratings are not included in the item's average rating.
