content: Its hard to follow up a great record like "Time Out Of Mind", but Dylan does a fine job on this set. It may initially come across as a grab bag as the tracks do not have the production, feel or blues groove of "Time". Instead Dylan relies on his touring band and incorporates some distinct pre-war pop song styles into his repertoire-with "Po' Boy" being the most successful in my opinion. My favorites are the blues based tunes "Cry Awhile", "Honest With Me", "Summer Days" and the trad. country "High Water." The best two cuts however are less derivative and more standard "Dylan"- "Mississippi" and "Sugar Baby." Both are outstanding and feature intriguing lyrics (as do the rest of the tracks.) "Mississippi" seems ripe for more covers- Sheryl Crow covered it approx. one year ago. It would work well as a country western song. A great followup to "Time Out of Mind". Play it several times and get used to the variety within.
