Free Music Notes for The Basement Tapes
Free Music Review: Eavesdropping on the creative process
Hit: 4 Stars
Fascinating double-album of the legendary basement sessions with Dylan and The Band. One has the distinct feeling of eavesdropping on the creative process rather than listening to a fully realised album. Like a master sculptor's workshop - there are plenty of off-cuts "Please, Mrs Henry", "Apple Suckling Tree", works in progress "Katie's Been Gone", "Goin' to Acapulco" and the odd fully realised masterpiece "Tears of Rage", "This Wheel's on Fire".
An absolute must have for all fans of Dylan and/or The Band.
The Basement Tapes Poster
The Basement Tapes can be heard as a manifesto for the '90s' underlying Americana agenda or as the greatest album never intended for commercial release. Homegrown 1967 recordings taped in the Band's fabled Big Pink hermitage in Saugerties, New York, many of the 24 songs resonated across American and English rock and folk long before their belated 1975 release through studio interpretations by the Byrds, Fairport Convention, Manfred Mann, Peter, Paul & Mary, and numerous other acolytes, as well as through myriad unauthorized bootlegs. Good as the covers were, Dylan and the Band rolled their own with an extraordinary coherence that sounds only more authentic in these rough-hewn, intimate, always musical performances, which dovetail with Dylan's stark John Wesley Harding and the Band's stunning debut, Music from Big Pink as well as the presciently lo-fi The Band. At a time when most rock culture was entranced with its post-atomic origins, these songs sounded timeless, plunging into pre-industrial folk, turn of the (20th) century barrelhouse and blues, and crackling, vintage rock & roll excursions with offhand verve and a thrilling disregard for what was hip. Time has only reinforced their visionary power. --Sam SutherlandFolk Music CDs
