Singing is often about making pretty sounds, but not always. Sometimes it’s just about breaking your heart. When a singer’s instrument starts to fail, when the dulcet tones don’t come so easily, you find out what he or she really knows about singing. Every breath, every inflection, every hesitation has to count — the way things will count on judgement day.
Bob Dylan knows everything there is to know about singing. Listen to this album and take a lesson in the art and craft and mystery of it.

I purchased the vinyl of this too. It’s a wonderful album. You can tell it was very important to him. Reportedly he recorded many more songs….maybe a Vol. 2?
Let’s hope!
