Trivia:

"Times" was the first full Dylan album produced by Tom Wilson. Wilson had conducted the last "Freewheelin'" session in April 1963 and would continue as Dylan's producer through the first three "Highway 61 Revisited" sessions in May-June 1965. (Source: Clinton Heylin's The Recording Sessions [1960 - 1994], New York: St. Martin's Press, 1995.)


Reviews:

From the The Bob Dylan Encyclopedia by Michael Gray:

"Times They Are a-Changin’, The [album, 1964] This third album was less of a leap forward, but was again a solo album, this time mainly of stark ‘protest’ songs, all written by Dylan, though often with adapted folk melodies. Like his second album, it contained songs that have achieved classic status: particularly the title track and ‘With God on Our Side’."

"“The Ballad of Hollis Brown” describes poverty as good as anyone ever has. On this song Dylan seem a totally pure folk singer. With “One Too Many Mornings” you get the sense that Dylan is right there with you talking right at the heart of the room. His childhood and early times are covered in “North Country Blues”. You can almost feel the cold. This is a terrific album if you want to hear the young Bob Dylan singing his own songs and trying to tell you his story." -- Folkrockman

Best Song: It's hard for me to see another song other than the title song as the best of the album. This song is a timeless statement of the way things are! -- Folkrockman

"Ballad of Hollis Brown". He could have been everyone... but he is an acetate of everybody suffering despite doing their very best in this world.
