Nashville Skyline is a favorite LP, but I do not think it is objectively all that good, I just like the country sound of that recording personally. I also really like his fairly recent music. "I Contain Multitudes" from a couple years ago is a beautiful poem and a favorite now ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CU-e...joWaUg0GKoL-UV). Tangled Up In Blue and Boots of Spanish Leather are probably my two most played tracks from him.
I get why people don't like him, he is really bad at actually singing from an objective standpoint, but I love literature and poetry and so he really does it for me. He has a wonderful way of piecing together images and metaphors into an oft vague but meaningful whole. |
If phrasing and connection not just voice make a great singer, he is a great singer. Billie Holiday comes to mind. Judy Garland. Jagger.
