This is a stereo hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.

Bob Dylan's eighth album followed a lengthy hibernation due to a motorcycle accident in which the singer re-evaluated his art. He emerged with a set of stark simplicity and heartfelt intensity, melding folk, rock, and country with a mesmerizing power that set off a huge back-to-basics movement in rock that lasted well into the next decade. A biblical purity encompasses the collection as Dylan paints graphic portraits of the disenfranchised--hobo, immigrant, drifter, messenger--articulating the uncertainty of the times. The best-known song here is the apocalyptic "All Along the Watchtower," which would soon be electrically redefined by Jimi Hendrix. The mood lifts on the final track "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight," a beautifully tender love song, suggesting that this is where salvation lies. John Wesley Harding repays repeated play with ever-unfolding metaphor and interpretation, including four hidden Beatles on the cover.

Originally released in 1967, this reissue is a hybrid CD consisting of remastered regular version playable on all players and a super audio CD version for players equipped with the format. 12 tracks. Digipak. Sony. 2003.

Includes liner notes by Bob Dylan.

Personnel: Bob Dylan (vocals, guitar, harmonica, piano); Pete Drake (steel guitar); Kenny Buttrey (drums).

Photographer: David Gahr.

Personnel: Bob Dylan (vocals, guitar, harmonica, piano); Pete Drake (steel guitar); Charles McCoy (bass); Kenny Buttrey (drums).

Rolling Stone (4/11/02, p.106) - Ranked #15 in Rolling Stone's "50 Coolest Records".
Rolling Stone (3/30/00, p.68) - 5 stars out of 5 - "...one of Dylan's most cryptic and thematically complex albums....its songs are rife with religious imagery, both explicit and implied....a masterful move - the original Dylan unplugged."
Q (Magazine) (p.111) - "[T]his spare collection of outlaw allegories and Biblical allusions is in stark contrast to the louder aesthetics prevailing elsewhere at the time..."

5 stars An Oft' Forgotten Gem
J.W.H. was a shock when it first emerged. It is Dylan writing and performing with a first-take intensity- and on this edition, the remastering strips away any sonic 'scrim' that distanced the listener from the songs. Listen on a hi-rez system for purety of sound, immediacy of performance, and the wisdom of the lyrics. It is like a glass of spring water in a desaert.

5 stars Not a better known one, but underplayed treat
The good thing about this one is it's not one of the Dylan CD's that got overplayed to the point where you might have gotten tired of it. He cut this one after the life threatening motorcycle accident and his voice is retrained and restrained but it's beautifully musically, all entirely acoustic, and fantastic lyrics-- some of his best lyrics. It's a masterpiece, the last of his early era, but something you can listen to again and again and enjoy the genius.
