I just got the new Bob Dylan and the David Byrne - St Vincent albums the other day. They are in heavy rotation, but with all toddler interruptions I have still not gotten a feel for them yet... especially the Dylan since we always listen to Love This Giant first.
Anyone else getting to know these albums? Or perhaps you've recently acquired a different album. Anyone heard the new Grizzly Bear?
i love the brass on the David Byrne! i have not yet had a chance to hear Dylan's new cd- i have sadly not gotten around to any new music myself these days, so appreciate any reviews you have!
ReplyDeleteI still don't feel like I know either of these albums. On top of these two a friend just unloaded a handful of others on me and now I am drowning in too much new music. I put it all in a play list, but it is 6 hours long, so it's hard to get to know anything.
ReplyDeleteI will say that the Dylan is growing on me, but not surprisingly I think the reviews went a bit overboard. Uncut gave it 1o out of 10, but I wouldn't say it is that. In fact I like Love and Theft and Modern Times a lot more. Still, it's good. More mellow I think than the two I just mentioned.
