Wow. This pressing sounds fantastic, everything sounds clear, no distortion, barely any surface noise. Overall, this is an amazing sounding record.
DrFate76 Oct 14, 2024
I have an early US pressing in the shrink with a purple hype sticker with white lettering that reads:

Includes
“Hurricane”
“Mozambique”
“Isis”

Does anyone know which pressing it is?

Can't go wrong with a Santa Maria press, no complaints at all. A fine sounding Dylan record.
3.5 stars

I am new to listening to Dylan, so far this is my favorite album.

Fun fact, Dylan totally ripped off John Phillips here

wich is the version with emmilou saying i fucked up?
the lp?

I seem to have a 1975 print of this record, it says 1975 CBS, Ram's Horn Music and Printed in Holland on the sleeve. Anyone have an idea?

I have a copy from 1975 my Father bought in NY. Why is there not any here from that year? Do someone know?

Disagree with the last poster. This is a great 70's Dylan album, would have been perfect if Hurricane wasn't on it.
Even so, great tunes,Dylan is in fine voice, and having Emmylou Harris along for a few of the tracks was a master stroke.
The violin work by Scarlet Rivera is also brilliant.

Any song writing is going to struggle to compete with Blood on the Tracks, and this doesn't. Isis and One Cup of Coffee are the highlights, Hurricane, Joey and Romance in Durango are OK by themselves, but not much better than OK, and the album itself just doesn't really grip me.
