By the mid-'70s, even Dylan's most ardent supporters began taking his artistic decline for granted. Albums like NEW MORNING and PLANET WAVES were fine works, but lacked the visionary spark of his seminal '60s recordings. At 34 he was already being written off as a has-been. That presumption is what made BLOOD ON THE TRACKS such a glorious sucker-punch of a record.

One of Dylan's most mournful efforts, this album, which easily ranks among his best, is full of stories about lost love and the struggle for peace of mind. With a simple, country-flavored backing somewhat akin to NASHVILLE SKYLINE, he recounts shattered love affairs in heart-breaking detail on songs like "Simple Twist Of Fate" and "If You See Her Say Hello." On the vengeful "Idiot Wind" he rails mercilessly against the ignorant and self-obsessed a la "Like A Rolling Stone." The difference here, and the major breakthrough for Dylan, is that by the end of the song, he's lumping himself in with those he excoriates so vehemently.

Includes liner notes by Pete Hamill.

Personnel: Bob Dylan (vocals, guitar); Kevin Odegard, Chris Weber (guitar); Buddy Cage (steel guitar); Peter Ostroushko (mandolin); Gregg Inhofer (keyboards); Paul Griffin (organ); Tony Brown, Billy Peterson (bass); Bill Berg (drums); Eric Weissberg & Deliverance.

Rolling Stone (12/11/03, p.96) - Ranked #16 in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Albums Of All Time" - "...No one disputes the album's luxuriant tangle of guitars, the gritty directness in Dylan's voice and the magnificent confessional force of his writing..."

Q (12/93, p.131) - 5 Stars (out of 5) - "...Suddenly Dylan no longer seemed to be straining to recapture the surreal poetic torrents of the '60s....this is probably Dylan's most complete and most unified album--and yes, damnit, his best..."
Alternative Press (5/01, p.104) - Included in AP's "10 Essential Breakup Albums" - "...Dylan has never been so thematically clear....representing a man full of regret and misery, singing through his tears."
Vibe (12/99, p.157) - Included in Vibe's 100 Essential Albums of the 20th Century
Q (Magazine) (p.110) - "Against the backdrop of his own collapsing marriage, it's as close as he ever got to the confessional school of singer-songwriters..."

NME (Magazine) (9/18/93, p.19) - Ranked #29 in NME's list of the "Greatest Albums Of The '70s."

5 stars Timeless Classic!
"Blood On The Tracks" is not only one of Bob Dylan's most definitive and amazing works, but it's an absolutely perfect album, or at least close to it. It is a somewhat dark, but incredible Dylan work revolving around such themes as divorce, lost love, etc. He wrote some of the most heartfelt, bitter lyrics here, and it shows. His singing and performance, along with the songwriting, couldn't have come together in such an almost magical way other than this. "Tangled Up In Blue" and "Shelter From The Storm" have become 2 of his biggest hits. However, there is so much more to it than that. Songs like "Idiot Wind" and its painful theme have to be heard to be believed. Along with the touching acoustic ballads and country-tinged numbers, "Meet Me In The Morning" is a great acoustic blues number with such an unstoppable toe-tapping feel, that it's almost completely shocking. To make a long story short, it's unbelievable how this timeless Dylan album is so unpredictably stunning even after all these years since its release. Words cannot even describe it, either.

5 stars This used to be the best album of all-time
The album that tops this is the original September 1974 acetate version. Unfortunately he redid 5 of the songs in December with a different band. On the acetate an acoustic Lily, Rosemary. Different lyrics to Idiot Wind. Tangled Up and If You See Her are much better. You're A Big Girl Now, breathtaking. Substitute with the original and you'll never look back.

5 stars As Good as Men Get About Relationships
From the wistful "If you see her" through the better known pieces, as many have remarked, this is Bob dealing with the very adult set of emotions that come with loss, regret, and the glimpsing of the might-have-been. Honestly, this is one of the most accomplished sets of music I know. Words fail me. He says it better. Way better.

5 stars 4th greatest of all time!
I think this is the 4th best album in history - only behind Bob's "Bringing It All Back Home", "Highway 61 Revisited" and "Blonde On Blonde" - Every song on here is a masterpiece and wonderfully put together!! My favorites are "Shelter From The Storm", "Lily, Rosemary", and "Tangled Up In Blue" but all are fantastic!! I definitely recommend this to any rock, country, folk or blues music fan!! It's truly incredible!!

MISSION STATEMENT:I'm very hopeful that an accomplished artist will hear my music and want to use my songs. I'm also interested in writing songs,instrumentals for use in television shows, commercials, radio, or any other media production that would be enhanced by having a great musical background to it. If you have any projects I could be involved with feel free to visit my website and please drop me an email.BIOGRAPHY:I feel very fortunate that my father (a concert violinist and graduate of the Julliard School of Music), introduced me to my love of music, and the guitar at the age of 5. Learning basic music theory, which I mixed with my own creativity, I soon learned I had the ability to re-create most anything I heard and loved being able to add my own feel to the songs.Influenced through the years by groups like the Beatles, The Doobie Brothers, and Creedence Clearwater Revival, I developed my own playing style, which is purely a mixture of all the great musicians I learned from earlier in my life.I will start out writing a song ...
