Is Mark Knofler playing guitar on this?   Sure sounds like his trademark sound



Yess!

and the rest of the album too
Freakin' staggering, how utterly brilliant, infinitely deep, and unapologetically bold, unique, and genius this is... Another Nobel Prize-worthy work among many by him!

Dylan's Rastafarian era?



Funny!   I thought the same thing
Never heard this on RP until now; much welcome. One of my top 3 Dylan albums actually.
I lost interest in Bob after he and the sound police started going after every little Tom, Dick, and busker who played one of his precious revenue-earning songs. He's always needed more money, ya know. But O  I have to admit, even though he deigned to spurn the Nobel Committee upon his poetry prize, this song is an example of some pretty fine poetry.

This song may be beautiful, and the lyrics moving, but I'll never know because Bob Dylan's voice wrapped it in a grenade of torture.



Hey amb,

You should send your complaint to Bob.  His trademark for last 60 years has been changing musical styles due to listener feedback. 

Remember when his disco music  and then punk was quite fashionable for a few years?   Fashion is a high priority for him.  
always fun to hear bob sing, when he's a little pissed off
Sing on brother bob.

We are all Infidels at some time in our lives.  
Dylan's Rastafarian era?
Probably my favorite track off his very underrated Infidels album. This was the first record he put out after his Christian-themed Slow Train Coming and Saved albums. I can't think of any other artist who bared his soul and shared his most intimate thoughts more than the ever-evolving Bob Dylan. What a gifted songwriter.
I really like this album, the first one of his I ever properly heard.

I think you don't what the definition of "artists" is. You might not like his voice. You might not follow the lyrics. But that says more about you than Bob.

I don't.  There is so much diversity of people and music here that there's always going to be someone who loves what you hate and hates what you love.  Kinda what I love about this place.  Cheers!

@ Essbee63: "One of the most profoundly overrated artists ever, and one of the top worst singers of all time.” Yet more proof that youth is wasted on the young. Too bad for you that Bob got a Nobel prize for…being Bob and singing songs. No doubt you were hoping to hear something more in line with Celine Dion…whoops, sorry, wrong station for that.

Good ear but unmistakable contribution.

First time I've heard it also.

Awesome. What a talent.
New tune for me and it is almost 40 years old.
Thanks to RP it is not new anymore.
It appears to be new on RP recently as well.

Need to hear at least once more before rating Bob here.
Mark Knopfler in autopilot ? 
I wonder if I would have understood a word of this song in 1983. Almost 40 years later, though, it resonates deeply, though much has to do with coming to understand Dylan better in that time, since the song is about him. Dylan's craft involves shifting from metaphor, to symbolism, to exposition so effortlessly, and so subtly, that we forget just how good a lyricist he really is, and why he deserves the Nobel for Literature. There is true literary art and meaning in this song -- a pleasure to have discovered it on RP today.
