Ist das jetzt das 21. Jahrhundert wenn man Musik anhand der Videos beurteilt? Das Video ist sicherlich kontrovers, aber ekelerregend? Nunja. Selbst der schlechteste Song von Dylan ist mir jedenfalls mehr wert als der gesamte Output der belanglosen Tastendrücker vom Animal Collective.

Nicht nur Gram Parsons findet B.D. klasse! Thumbsup

Mehrere, auch die Panda Bear Solo Alben. Ich kann damit nichts, aber auch gar nichts anfangen. Viele Freunde von mir schwören auf die Band, mich lässt das völlig kalt. Drinks

Panda Bear is ja noch kewler Raucher

Dann sag Bescheid bevor du kommst, damit ich Dylan aufleg.. Freunde

LOL - Bob Lefsetz mal wieder:

Zitat:Dylan

Is this a joke?

Athletes retire, their bodies give out and they can no longer compete at a world class level. If you can’t dance, they kick you out of the ballet company, if you can’t sing, maybe you should stop performing?

What I hate here is no one will speak the truth. “Tempest” has gotten glowing reviews. And I’m not deep into it enough to judge the material, although I’m awaiting the “New York Times” article wherein it’s revealed he stole the lyrics, hell, if they can bust Jonah Lehrer, they can bust anybody. But one thing’s for sure, the vocals are horrible. So bad, they sound like your grandpa just woke up and is clearing his throat. A grandpa who sounds like Frankie Pentangeli in “Godfather II.”

I’m a huge Dylan fan.

But I gave up going twenty years ago. I’ve got no problem with him rearranging his material, it keeps him interested, young and fresh, but that doesn’t mean I care. It’s like a bizarre crossword puzzle. You’re sitting there listening, trying to divine what song it is by deciphering a lyric or two. It’s kind of like opening the dictionary and trying to figure out which book was made out of the words…”Ulysses,” “Portnoy’s Complaint,” “Fifty Shades of Grey”?

And at this late date, the story’s not buried. But people go to the show like lemmings, to pay homage to what once was. Kind of like going to a baseball show to get Reggie Jackson’s autograph. Or maybe going to a “Star Trek” convention to meet Spock.

If Dylan didn’t have all those years ago hits, he wouldn’t even be playing clubs. He’d be playing Holiday Inns. And no newspaper would review his material. People would laugh.

But ain’t that America, wherein everybody knows the truth but no one can say it.

As for writing a song about the Titanic… Imagine Kanye doing this. Or even Don Henley. They’d be excoriated.

Give me a break.

And while I’ve got your attention, who did Cat Power blow to get all that publicity?

One thing I love about these records by critical darlings is they come and go in an instant. Anybody talking about Fiona Apple anymore? No, that was two months ago! And the only people talking about Cat Power’s album are members of the press corps. There’s no buzz, no virality, just old men manipulated by a sexual being and a cadre of women getting behind a bizarre form of girl power.

Come on, Cat Power got her chance. She failed. Is she really that different from Lana Del Rey?

Has-beens and alta kacher never-beens just can’t believe that the era has changed, that the past no longer rules. They make albums in an era of singles. They hype them upon release not knowing it’s about longevity as opposed to a singular impression. Hell, that’s what Spotify is all about, you get paid when people continue to listen to your music, not when someone buys it. How many albums have you purchased and played once or barely more? The company got just as much money from you as they did when you bought an album and played it ad infinitum. Is this the paradigm we want to prop up?

I’ve got no problem with Dylan and Power making albums. But I do have a huge problem with mainstream media fueled by ancient record companies and aged publicity people going on and on about stuff that is marginal and most people don’t care a whit about.

Hell, there’s more innovation in Psy’s “Gangnam Style” than in both of the above projects. He created something intriguing, that you can’t take your eyes off of, that is subversive.

Once upon a time, Bob Dylan was subversive. Now he’s just an old man who doesn’t know what to do with himself but go on tour. Maybe he should stay home and hang with his grandchildren, write about that, it’d be more interesting than any music he makes.

As for Cat Power…

With the barrier to entry so low, with anybody able to make a record, the concept of a critic’s darling, one who wasn’t that good to begin with, is passe.

Just like the critics themselves.

Mark Knopfler habe ich auch noch nie verstanden, fand ich von Anfang an langweilige Altherrenmucke am Lagerfeuer amateurhaft gespielt. Bob Dylan hat immerhin Musikgeschichte geschrieben, ist aber schon über 40 Jahre her. Anfangen konnte ich damit aber auch nix. Lipsrsealed2

Nur was hat der gute Mann gegen Cat Power? Hey, die hat seit Ewigkeiten kein neues Album rausgebracht. Da können ausgehungerte Kritiker schon mal überreagieren. Gut ist die neue Scheibe trotzdem.

Von The XX habe ich eigentlich geglaubt, die würden kein zweites Album machen. Hätten sie es mal lieber gelassen. Das neue ist bestenfalls langweilig.
