CD ReviewsReal Dylan JOHNEC | Jamestown, ND USA | 11/17/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "I haven't liked the last couple of Dylan releases. I know the critics loved them--some of his best reviews ever---but...don't they sound different? The structures are predictable -I am not sure where the lyrics come from but most songs sound very odd to my seasoned "Dylan Ear". But this recording feels like Dylan. His voice isn't as postured and the band sounds relaxed. The first disc is Dylan at his best and the second has it's moments but... The slow blues numbers are classic and the band shines. The alternate versions of several songs show us his genius and pay attention to how he nails each take vocally. Who says he can't sing. A must for Dylan fans. I have a lingering thought that maybe the best Dylan we will hear from now on will be from alternate versions of songs from past records. I really hope I am very wrong." Don't Buy This Album! Robert A. Alps | Evanston, IL United States | 12/20/2008 (4 out of 5 stars) "If the listing for this item is correct, then I would highly recommend not buying it. The listing shows one disc from the Bootleg Series Vol. 8. It was already unclear how many discs belong to that volume because of the fact that the "regular" release had 2 discs and the "Special Edition" had 3 discs but cost $100 more!! This appears to be disc 1 from either of the other two sets. Why pay $12 for this when $17 gets you 2 discs. I rated this 4 stars because the music is absolutely that good. In fact, the only reason I did not put 5 stars was because of the odd configuration. By all means get some version of this, if only to hear Red River Shore. " Dylan's Archaic Music Chris Bruce | Pullman, WA | 02/20/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is a hugely satisfying album, and is essential for anyone who loves the music of Bob Dylan. It has a deep, rich sound that is timeless - "archaic," if you will. Even more amazing, given that it is a compilation album spanning many years, it feels whole, fully-formed. This is undoubtedly due to Jeff Rosen's long, sympathetic relationship with Dylan. The booklet's liner notes are quite good, and their anecdotes, along with the combination of unreleased music and the variety of photographs in the booklet suggest a new kind of vulnerability from behind the mask of this unique artist. The many songs produced in association with Daniel Lanois make it a wonderful companion to the second half of Dylan's memoir, Chronicles."
