Bob Dylan
Glenn O'Brien, Artforum, January 1998
I HEARD A TRACK from Bob Dylan's new Time Out of Mind (Columbia) on the radio a few weeks before the album's release. I didn't recognize the voice right away, but I was moved by its unique and powerful sound, like a venerable, shamanic Delta blues man backed by some weird, Tom Waits-like band. It was profound blues, ancient and future music.
