A lovely copy of this absolute classic Dylan masterpiece. Created in the wake of his near fatal accident and while he was still recovering. Nobody knew what to expect and he didn't disappoint in that way, coming up with some new country influences that would soon form a kind of hallmark of his music.. Here's Allmusic's 5 star review:
by Stephen Thomas Erlewine
Bob Dylan returned from exile with John Wesley Harding, a quiet, country-tinged album that split dramatically from his previous three. A calm, reflective album, John Wesley Harding strips away all of the wilder tendencies of Dylan's rock albums -- even the then-unreleased Basement Tapes he made the previous year -- but it isn't a return to his folk roots. If anything, the album is his first serious foray into country, but only a handful of songs, such as "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight," are straight country songs. Instead, John Wesley Harding is informed by the rustic sound of country, as well as many rural myths, with seemingly simple songs like "All Along the Watchtower," "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine," and "The Wicked Messenger" revealing several layers of meaning with repeated plays. Although the lyrics are somewhat enigmatic, the music is simple, direct, and melodic, providing a touchstone for the country-rock revolution that swept through rock in the late '60s.
I'm not really a record dealer - this is more of a hobby for me.
