"Hurricane" by Bob Dylan is a phenomenal song.

[@zenhaelcero8481]

Unfortunately, the studio version of that one always gets struck down. Reactors end up reacting to a less-than-stellar live version with an odd arrangement which just isn't quite as good as the studio cut.

You’re exactly right!! You are absolutely enriching your generations life experience listening to the wide variety of music from the previous generations! Great music!!

[@magicbrownie1357]

Dylan's JOKERMAN is absolutely amazing both lyrically AND musically. On the "Infidels" album he has a GREAT back up band. The best of his career. Sly and Robbie in the rhythm section and Knopfler on guitar among others.

Jokerman is really great. Good recommendation.

Love that one a lot too. He was on a roll in the 80’s with Infidels, and later doing Traveling Wilburys and touring with the Dead too. He and Garcia worked well together - love the album “Dylan and The Dead”.

His album "Blonde on Blonde" is one of his best.

[@snakelite61]

That album, Blood on the Tracks, and Highway 61 Revisited are three of his best.

[@waynejohanson1083]

That is my favorite album of all time.

[@kristiswa]

"One of" is the key phrase here. Quite a challenge to enumerate all of his best.

[@lextek.]

Did you know that Bob won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016? Part of the citation reads "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition". He became a Christian in the late 70s and took five months off to attend a discipleship school run by the Association of Vineyard Churches. This song is from the first album he recorded after that, his Christian themed "Slow Train Coming". When he returned to touring in 1978 and until early 1980 he only performed his faith based songs, refusing to perform any of his previous secular material. I have a great 2 CD set named "Trouble No More" that is a collection of those songs performed in concert. If you're not aware of it I highly recommend it.

[@JoaoSantos-eo6db]

Bob Dylan is the winner of the 2016 Nobel Prize for literature. The 75-year-old American folk musician is the first singer to receive the distinction, for "having created new poetic expressions in the great tradition of American song"

I remember when this album came out, and it was surprising to hear this soul and gospel sound from Bob Dylan. This 'born-again' phase lasted two albums, and it's as true today as it was from the beginning of mankind - 'You gotta serve somebody'... 🙄 😳 🙏 ♥ 🎤 🎶...

But if all this sudden revelation was so important , why did he shrug it off , and never explain why ? " No comment " was all he had to say later .

[@kristiswa]

Three albums: 1979's Slow Train Coming, 1980's Saved and 1981's Shot of Love

[@joemoe765]

Your love of Bob Dylan is wonderful....you need to do more from his backing band in the early days, The Band The Weight The Shape I'm In Ophelia It Makes No Difference Dixie You should watch the documentary The Last Waltz and react to each song in order. You would be exposed to some of music's greatest artists helping The Band say farewell

Love this song and hadn't listened to it in quite a while - so thanks for that. It's sooooo good.

[@andreaknapp2394]

Blowin' in the Wind is a must listen...

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

Dylan at his grooviest. The best, bar none, collection of Dylan live is at The Budokan. Superb; every track has the fab backing vocals used here. So many songs you got to hear. Simple Twist of Fate; Positively 4th Street; Silvio; One More Cup of Coffee; I'll be your Baby Tonight; Stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again; Desolation Row the list just goes on on and on.

[@brettnheather]

I highly recommend All of his gospel material from Shot of Love, Slow Train Coming and Saved. Especially covers of these songs. Gospel at its best. Bob truly is "The Oracle" in all his styles and formats. A Jewish guy that became a Christian and wrote some of the best gospel songs ever written. Thanks for the amazing reaction and comments.

[@zenhaelcero8481]

His gospel period is so underappreciated! Trouble No More is a phenomenal bootleg.

[@robertwatson496]

Everything is Broken is my favorite and reminds me of this song.

[@lesliecermak6473]

I really enjoy your reactions - I appreciate how you listen to the instruments, arrangements and lyrics and how your background in band and listening to jazz helps you appreciate this era of music. I also appreciate that you aren’t just choosing the obvious hits by these artists. Keep up with the selection and following your own instincts.

"This is what rappers want to be when they grow up"...a great quote Wilburn!

[@DingleMcGilacutty]

I just saw Dylan in Seville Spain. I’ve seen him several times over the years and even saw him with the dead same years ago. He’s never been great live. It was a day or two before his 82nd birthday amd he was absolutely amazing! Set list, venue, musicians and no cell phones in the audience. It was just great! Best show I’ve ever seen him play.

[@otisdylan9532]

There are many great Dylan songs, hard to know what to suggest that you listen to next, so I'll second 3 of the great songs that I've seen others mention below: "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)", "Blowin' in the Wind", and "Tangled Up in Blue".

[@mikeburns9359]

Dylan not only wrote his own songs but wrote songs for many others also.

Great album. The title tune off this album is pretty cool. The depth of his song book is very deep and worth exploring.... and Yes Chod, he is one of the best lyricists you've ever heard... so much so he won the Pulitzer and the Nobel Prize for Redefining Boundaries of Literature.

[@ray-moeadayinthelife9754]

when it came out...lots of peeps didn't care for it.....I liked it so much I bought the LP

[@roxannanelson1436]

Another 8-track I had..WOW, you're really aging me here Chod. Always loved this one. "Lay, Lady Lay" and "The Jokerman" are also 2 great tunes. On "Lay, Lady Lay" Drummer Kenny Buttrey has said that he had a difficult time coming up with a drum part for the song. Dylan had suggested bongos, while producer Bob Johnston said cowbells. In order to "show them how bad their ideas were", Buttrey used both instruments together. Kris Kristofferson, who was working as a janitor in the studio at the time, was enlisted to hold the bongos in one hand and the cowbell in the other. Buttrey moved the sole overhead drum mic over to these new instruments. When he switches back to the drums for the choruses the drumset sounds distant due to not being directly mic'd. The take heard on the album is the first take and is one of Buttrey's own favorite performances.

[@docbearmb]

Ballad of a Thin Man. You’ll like it. Once again Bob is singing about a person(s) who pissed him of. Maybe a reporter or critic. I think Dylan’s best are when he’s scorching someone who’s on his bad side. Side note: you have a great channel.

[@edprzydatek8398]

Like "Positively 4th Street". Am I right?

[@jamesblass8140]

Really glad you took a look into this time period of Dylan. He has played in just about every genre, sung with a wide variety of techniques, and consistently written interesting material. In the popular lexicon, he's seen as a wheezy folk singer or a pre-psychedelic blowhard, but the deeper you dig, the more versatile his music is. Kudos for giving the time and respect to explore his catalogue, and for sharing it with your viewers.

Bob Dylan's song Subterranean Homesick Blues has been hailed as the first ever rap song and the first music video. Please do a reactor to that one.

This is one of my favourite albums. For being a new convert to Christianity at the time, he had a very good grasp of theology and orthopraxy. I would put this album up against anything in the mainstream 'Christian music' industry. You might try something off Dylan's 'Desire' album--just close your eyes and pick any song on that album--they are all sold gold.

This is the fourth of your reactions to Bob Dylan to which I've listened. I noticed each one is different in style, as you are tasting all of his diversity. I love it that you have a jazz background. I haven't been able to find any reactions to real jazz yet. I suppose you know too much of the jazz artists' works, so you couldn't claim to be hearing any of them for the first time.

Yeah I gotta admit I too was a Dylan zealot during my education of Bob (Robert Zimmerman) Dylan. Like a kid with a new bike I just wanted to show him off to anyone who would recognize his greatness. Reflecting back I now know that many songs are private and between “Bob and me”. It’s okay to be selfish with the songs that deal you a mortal blow or lift you from a pit. Dylan can also be a personal moment and has become a dear friend in many times of solitude. What a magnificent library of songs. Right now I’m listening to “New Pony”. I can’t help but think he’s talking about Joan Baez his ex.

[@barbarascotto3873]

@@tinypurplefishesrunlaughin8052 so incredibly well said. I've always done the same thing-- trying to show off The Dead, Dylan, and SRV to others. It's just been the last 8 months since my soul mate died, that I realize the feelings I get from these guys is, and should be, private, between the band and myself. As Deadheads, my love and I used to fly and drive all over the country, the UK, Jamaica and Mexico and I used to try to explain to people why we were spending so much money to go "see some old, washed up rock band". Then after he died 8 months ago, I realized, it's none of anyone's business why we would fly all over to see concerts, and the people you have to explain this to are never going to get it and probably shouldn't be a part of your life anyway. 😊 PS...

I love that this is your favourite, mine too, the whole album. Try "Man Gave Names to All the Animals" from the same album

Have you heard Dylan's "Every Grain of Sand?" Based on your reaction to "Serve Somebody" I believe you would really appreciate the beauty of this song. Best regards..

Think I saw this cover on a cassette In a casette holder in a store. Sometime between 1979-82.

Glad to hear you like another MN. legend. Hadn't herd this song in yrs & i have forgot in' about this classic song. Sorry to hear this kind of crap is still going on & it hit on to you. I can relate what you just went through. Hope you blocked him on all your sites. I'm a person that likes many genre of music. In my teens i got harassed of my music choices in high school cause i liked disco & funk. They gave me a nick name i didn't like but my pay back was this was the beginning of the boom box era. I brought be side books, my big boom box to school at lunch time go to the park & would blast some funk & i would out blast the rock heads with there sm. boom box. The funny thing was they would ask me to play there rock music cassettes on my box. Which i had no problem cause they didn't think i liked rock. After I played there music i walked back to school blasting my music. I also got a bad time again in the early yr of hip hop cause i liked it. For me it was funny a high school classmate that kind of gave me a bad time of my music choices show up at a club i went to alot & also djed. I went up to meet him & i had said took you a long time to feel the music i was listing too. He apologized & every thing was cool. So Chod enjoy what you enjoy i know it hard but don't let these a hole get to you. But i know it will stick with you like you see in my commit but i got some pay back. I enjoy what you doin' keep up the good work & keep exploring music you haven't herd. I'll leave with a request the Bar-Kays - Move you boogie body. This legendary group hasn't been reacted to yet. Enjoy.

I'm 64 years old and know a lot of Dylan's music, but I have never heard this song before. Amazing what you find when you dig a little deeper. Adding to my playlist.
