Bob Dylan was at several crossroads in the mid-1970s
Artistically, he was largely written off as being past his prime
Emotionally, he was suffering through a painful divorce from his then-wife Sara Lowndes
Creatively, he appeared at a stalemate, his previous decade’s unprecedented run of transformational brilliance finished
Then came Blood on the Tracks
For all the melancholic pain, unresolved questions, shattered memories, wasted times, unrequited dialogs, and weary regret within
Blood on the Tracks remains as daring as it is reflective
Rather than follow for a monotone caustic vibe, Dylan’s songs burrow into the subconscious for the manners
In which they are even-keeled, mellow, and occasionally, even peaceful
Dignity, honor, poignancy, and fairness
All traits uncommon in any situation in which partners dissolve histories, change hearts, and attribute blame
Instill the record with equilibrium on par with the consistency of the flowing melodies
