“Guy Debord Vindicated Again” is not a sentence you ever want to be typing and yet I feel like I’m doing it maybe two dozen times a week at this point

Well, heck! Thank you!

This is so beautiful

his singing on it seems especially metallic and brilliant

this is great!

I love a lot of em but sorry, Desolation Row, basic bitch ovah heavy

Specifically bc of how the last stanza drops all the elegiac Calypso mermaids hocus pocus in favor of "I hate you for writing a letter to me describing the things you're up to; how dare you ask about my well being"

easy choice but maybe ballad of a thin man. the more i listen to it the more its sneering hippie effacement seems to turn into sincere epistemological terror. spent a lot of the last few years in a state of “there is something happening but you don’t know what it is”

I love this loop you make here from Dylan back to Woody Guthrie

Truly underrated song, Scarlet Rivera's violin is so beautiful on it. I've finally given in and accepted that Desire is one of my top Dylan albums

this is super interesting ... sneering hippie effacement --> sincere epistemological terror describes so much of Dylan's trajectory, or a back-and-forth in his work

When I was growing up my album had a scratch on Simple Twist of Fate so I have weird relationship to that song!

Ha, I never thought of it as dropping the hocus pocus but you're right, the flat-footedness of the last stanza really does make the whole song

You're a delight

Elite pick

This is a deeply eccentric and yet very solid choice

Incredible song, one of two absolute all-timers on that album

any song with rainbow trout in it is a good one!

Here is a place to say your favorite Bob Dylan song.

very underrated year

Been waiting for this! So excited to read

I’m so sorry. Grateful for the fantastic work of you and your colleagues.
