Blood on the Tracks shows Dylan triumphantly returning to his prime form in the 70s, after almost a decade of somewhat lackluster
releases. In some ways, this album was a return to form, with exceptionally written acoustic ballads filled with Dylan's trademark
lyrical style. However, it was also much more insightful and emotional than his previous classics. Part of this might have
been a result of the recent breakdown of his marriage. While this may seem discouraging for someone who wants to give this
album a try, do not let this sway your preconceptions at all. This is an absolute masterpiece for Dylan, and ranks among his
very best (some consider it to be his best). Every track is instantly gripping and warrants numerous listens. So go to your
nearest record store and pick this one up right away, you won't regret it.
Key Tracks:
Simple Twist of Fate
You're A Big Girl Now

Final Verdict: 9.6
