No decent versions of Summertime in England on Youtube :thunbdown:
Can,t think what 'sympathy for the devil' was a pastiche of. Whoo wh..hoo.
I,ll hold you to that. Genuine talent will last. Adele can sing and write....maybe not in a style you like. But plenty of others do.
There is only so much room for talents as ginormous as Newman. He ain't on the same page as most.
As for the others you mention, sure, their major glories are well behind them but each has a body of work that will ensure their longevity.
Ah, it's like stepping back to...ummm...last night....:thumbup:

Got this on vinyl. Still sounds ace! :thumbup:
Shallow, glib and wrong.
I will assume you have every Dylan and Newman album, dozens of reference books, lyric books, go and see them both in concert every time they perform in the UK here...or you would not venture an opinion.
Tempest is dire, Dylan has been composing by numbers for a decade and his performances are lamentable; although his band is sublime
Harps and Angels is as brilliant as anything Newman has ever done and his performances are still worth driving from Ilkley to Gateshead for.
Dylan, after Presley, will aways be the second most important artist to emerge in "rock music" but an interesting, perceptive song writer now he is not.
In fact Robert Hunter co-wrote every song on Dylan's Together through Life (except one) and he co-wrote the opening (and only fresh) track, Duquesne Whistle, on Tempest.
Bob was great, maybe the greatest but no more.

Removed AxCx as I remembered one of the tracks on that album has lyrics that you can easily make out, which is unusual for them - so removed so I don't get banned. This GB track is a good replacement.
I was following up info on one of the bands you posted the other day Dev'so and ended up on the wiki page for AxCx
