Maggie's Farm

Man o man... this IS freakin' weird. Just yesterday I was sitting here talking with an old pal of mine who wants to attend the nearest Leonard Cohen concert just so he can boo the geezer. Cohen is on his world wide "feelin' good" tour and my pal is disgusted that the man has sold out. I told him that Leonard's brains, for once, are not steeping in chemicals and mental anguish, and thus, he's simply content, and boring these days. Then I said, "Dylan has NEVER sold out!" Well... I guess it's too late now. This album is going to go down as one of the most peculiar contributions to Christmas that's ever been offered.

This album is so bad, I actually forgot the line you tapped regarding the charity thing! And thus, Bob has NOT sold out!! Thanks, BD, for reeling me in. But why... WHY... doesn't the man even TRY to sing?? I've heard him do it before. Bob can do it! Wouldn't he think that a Christmas album should be kind of sweet? The chorus and orchestration certainly is. A lot of effort went into putting this thing together. Really old time kind of style here. Oh, well... Bob will be forever an enigma.
