BOB DYLAN Blonde On Blonde
Blonde on Blonde, rock's first double album, is easily the single most convincing case for Dylan's Genius:
for example Dylan considered the epic Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands - amazingly cut in one perfect 11-minute take - ' the best song I've ever written, and it was accordingly given the accolade of an entire side to itself, the first time this had occurred on a 'pop' record
A wedding present in advance for Sara Lownds on whom the title puns (just as the album spells out BOB), nothing could follow this, taking up a side of vinyl where it really blossoms, so that every consonant rings out like a bell. Sung as if in a trance and recorded in the small hours of the morning in a single take with the session men kept in the dark by their enigmatic employer, constantly rising to a closing climax to find every time the singer had no intention of stopping. As Kenny Buttrey . 'I was playing one-handed, looking at my watch. And it kept on and on. We'd never heard anything like this before', It reminds Robert Wyatt of the finest jazz: ' this song has got that king of momentum, it builds and grows, builds and grows.... they keep surging towards an end, which is Miles Davis-like in its wickedness. It's like very clever sex, really'
Dylan, told Rolling Stone in 1978, 'the closest I ever got to the sound I hear in my mind was on the Blonde on Blonde album'
