Dylan at 71 – better than ever

Bob-Dylan-Tempest-608x608

I discovered last night that Bob Dylan’s new album – “Tempest” – was released yesterday, so I went to Amazon.com to check it out.

The MP3 download for all 10 songs is a mere $5, so I pulled the trigger without hesitation.

This is Dylan’s 35th studio album and, at age 71, he seems to be at the top of his game. The years show in his voice, but they only serve to make it richer and more expressive.

I am in absolute awe of his word/rhyme choices, his timing and the nuances and colors in his voice.

This is the best $5 I’ve spent on music in years.
