Free Music Review: On Inventing Bob Dylan
Hit: 4 Stars

In reviewing Bob Dylan's 1965 classic album Bringing All Back Home (you know, the one where he went electric) I noted that it seemed hard to believe now that both as to the performer as well as to what was being attempted that anyone would take umbrage at a performer using an electric guitar to tell a folk story (or any story for that matter). I further pointed out that it is not necessary to go into all the details of what or what did not happen with Pete Seeger at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965 to know that one should be glad, glad as hell, that Bob Dylan continued to listen to his own drummer and carry on a career based on electronic music.

Others have, endlessly, gone on about Bob Dylan's role as the voice of his generation (and mine), his lyrics and what they do or do not mean and his place in the rock or folk pantheons, or both. Here we are going back to the early days when there was no dispute that he had earned a place in the folk pantheon. The only real difference between the early stuff and the later electric stuff though is- the electricity. Dylan's extraordinary sense of words, language and word play has been a constant throughout his career. If much later (in the 1990's) he gets a bit repetitious and a little gimmicky in order to stay "relevant" that is only much later after he had done more than his share to add to the language of music.

In this selection we have some outright folk classics that Dylan covered as well as a couple of his own that will endure for the ages like those of his early hero Woody Guthrie's have endured. In fact this album is as much a tribute to Woody as it is a wake up call that a new folk talent has come on the scene. Dylan gets better in latter albums as he develops his own voice but this mainly cover debut album shows his raw talent coming out of the gate. We have the traditional House of the Rising Sun, Pretty Peggy-o, Man of Constant Sorrow, Elizabeth Cotton's Freight Train and a very good cover of Blind Lemon Jefferson's See That My Grave is Kept Clean. Song to Woody though kind of expresses what Dylan is trying to do as he first hits the New York folk scene and see if he can stay in Woody's company. We know the answer was eventually yes.
