NEW Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding (Limited Edition MFSL Audiophile 180g Monaural Double Vinyl EP, 2016)
Review from another site: Bob Dylan returned from exile with John Wesley Harding, a quiet, country-tinged album that split dramatically from his previous three. A calm, reflective album, John Wesley Harding strips away all of the wilder tendencies of Dylan's rock albums -- even the then-unreleased Basement Tapes he made the previous year -- but it isn't a return to his folk roots. If anything, the album is his first serious foray into country, but only a handful of songs, such as "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight," are straight country songs. Instead, John Wesley Harding is informed by the rustic sound of country, as well as many rural myths, with seemingly simple songs like "All Along the Watchtower," "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine," and "The Wicked Messenger" revealing several layers of meaning with repeated plays. Although the lyrics are somewhat enigmatic, the music is simple, direct, and melodic, providing a touchstone for the country-rock revolution that swept through rock in the late '60s.
This is a Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab record. MFSL (or MOFI) stands out as one of few record labels that independently invests in research and development of audio technology. It has been the undisputed pioneer and leader in audiophile recordings since the company's inception in 1977. Mobile Fidelity's first and foremost goal is to offer faithfully reproduced high fidelity recordings that would complement the numerous advances occurring in audio delivery systems. This particular release, limited to 3000 copies, is further enhanced with 45 RPM playback on two discs, providing for an even richer sound. Have no doubt. You will hear the difference!
