Blonde on Blonde:
A double album that transcends time, defies space, suspends reality, and looks through the human soul and tells the listener characteristics about themselves they didn’t know
Professor Sean Wilentz, historian-in-residence for Bob Dylan’s Web site, comes as close to summing up its brilliance in his superb Bob Dylan In America as any who’ve tried:
“The songs are rich meditations on desire, frailty, promises, boredom, hurt, envy, connections, missed connections, paranoia, and transcendent beauty
In short, the lures and snare of love, stock themes of rock and pop music
But written with a powerful literary imagination and played out in a pop netherworld”
No lie
Forever prized for a unique sound that cultural critic Greil Marcus tagged “the most glamorous record imaginable
Listening you [can] see the checkered jester’s suit Dylan had worn on stage for the nine previous, furious months
” Blonde on Blonde is to music, production, prose, and performance as what hydrogen is to water
The secret to its inimitable aural character partially stems from Dylan’s request in Nashville to producer Bob Johnston
To remove the baffles from the studio room, allowing the musicians to interact as well as the music to assume a more organic quality
That drifts from one microphone to another
Our reissue captures this ensemble ambience, with echoes, resonation, and some of the most natural timbres you’ll ever hear in plain sight
