Presence, immediacy, naturalness:  Mobile Fidelity reissue makes Blood on the Tracks among most lifelike-sounding albums you'll ever hear!
Dylan's Masterpiece Break-Up Album: Ranked No. 16 on Rolling Stone's List of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time!   Includes "Tangled Up In Blue," "Simple Twist of Fate," "Idiot Wind," and "Buckets of Rain"

Bob Dylan was at several crossroads in the mid-1970s. Artistically, he was largely written off as being past his prime. Emotionally, he was suffering through a painful divorce from his then-wife Sara Lowndes. Creatively, he appeared at a stalemate, his previous decade's unprecedented run of transformational brilliance finished. Then came Blood on the Tracks.

A start-to-finish cycle that documents a lover's pursuit of, entanglement with, and loss of a woman, the bracingly intimate 1975 effort remains one of the most encompassing break-up albums ever made and ranks as the most personal statement of the Bard's career. To hear it is to experience the agony, frustration, trauma, highs, lows, confusion, sadness, and, ultimately, requisite redemption associated with intimate relationships gone astray. Dylan maintains it's a work of fiction, but it's evident close-vested autobiographical premise is what helps make it universal: It's the icon singing through tears, going out of his mind, battling hallowing emptiness, firing shots across the bow, and accepting culpability. It is, in short, a consummate expression of love's darker sides and the consequences of what happens when dreams unravel.

As part of its Bob Dylan catalog restoration series, Mobile Fidelity is thoroughly humbled to have the privilege of mastering the iconic LP from the original master tapes and pressing it on dead-quiet LPs at RTI. The end result is the very finest, most transparent analog edition of Blood on the Tracks ever produced-and the first-ever proper analog reissue. Fantastically presenting both the solo acoustic and band-supported songs with the utmost clarity, dynamics, presence, immediacy, spaciousness, imaging, and balance, this version shines a high-powered light on the fluid vocal phrasing, timbral shifts, functional rhythms, and inward-looking strumming that contribute to every song here serving as a wound-exposing confessional.

Item Reviews:

Stupendous

 posted on 07/08/2013      5 Stars  Reviewer: Lloydville

"Stupendous pressing of a stupendous album. Unless you've got a pristine copy of the original release you need this in your collection. Essential."

MFSL continues hitting homers

 posted on 07/04/2013      5 Stars  Reviewer: JeffersonDD "This is by far my favorite Dylan album. This is without question the best pressing of BOTT I've ever heard. The bass is finally sharp and defined. The imaging and soundstage are crisp and expansive. I hate to use an already overused cliche, but the musicians are in the room with you.

Nothing too fancy, no 45 RPM, no 200g pressing, just incredibly well done mastering and HQ manufacturing process."

A must buy.
