From the The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia by Michael Gray:
"Another Side of Bob Dylan [1964] The fourth album, and recorded in a day. The title was not of
Dylan’s choosing; it would be the last time that someone other than the artist decided what to
name the work. The Dave Spart section of his constituency declared that this was an unwelcome
side of Bob Dylan and the album was a sell-out— just as more people were to feel later when he ‘went electric’,
again when he ‘went country’ and yet again when he was ‘Born Again’. This fourth album was much the same stark,
solo performance as on the preceding three (though Dylan added piano and somehow more space and colour
in the sound) but with the exception of the long ‘Chimes of Freedom’ there wasn’t a protest song
or any overtly political theme anywhere on the record: and even ‘Chimes of Freedom’ was, for
many, uncomfortably close to blurry impressionism rather than activist clarity."
Best Song: I really like "Chimes of Freedom" BECAUSE of it's "blurry impressionism"! -- Folkrockman
Favorite Lyric:
like "Starry-eyed an' laughing as I recall when we were caught"
and I don't know why that particular line reaches me but it does.
