How?
Is it about how you don't know…
Oh, yes it is.

It's a bit stop/start.

This'd be a good song if it didn't keep stopping.

I do feel the album would have benefited from its exclusion.

This one's alright.
I think on Balance I prefer it to the less triple tracked over produced old version.
Problem is the famous ones are just unlistenable these days. And the Poxy Music version was better.

Mouth organ.
The spirit of Dylan is strong with this one.

Not sure this need to be over 6 minutes long.
Quite like it though.

It is over.
That is an album upon which I felt the stronger songs benefited from the stripped-down sound but the weaker songs had their weaknesses exposed. Generally, I found it quite dull.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

Hang on, I'm just going to check the old version
The string line is quite nice, but the plodding, oh the plodding…
Yes, I prefer the RAW version.
I'm still only giving it 2★ out of 5. It's not as totally self obsessed as his first album, but the songs are just so… Nothing.

Almost forgot, the original came with this postcard:
I'm trying to avoid using the word 'petty' again, but it's hard not to.
