I’m not a big fan of the new Bob Dylan disc Modern Times. I certainly seem to be in the minority, and my own brother may disown me, but I only liked 4 of the songs (one of which was a cover). I just can’t get into mellower, jazzier, adult-contemporary-sounding stuff. The bluesy numbers, I’m all over; “Thunder On The Mountain”, “The Levee’s Gonna Break” and “Someday Baby” are great songs, and “Rollin’ And Tumblin'” is an adequate cover, but the rest just doesn’t do anything for me. It’s not bad music; it’s just not something I’d choose to listen to.
