Knopfler and Dylan brings you back to the days of “Infidel ” an underrated Dylan album
I agree about Infidels. One of my favs, for sure! : ))
Me too… That is one helluvan album. It is just so underrated. I’ve somehow never appreciated albums like Oh Mercy and Blood On The Tracks anywhere quite as much. In fact I’ve never really enjoyed Blood on the Tracks, but I’ll never go so far as to say that its over rated- so many fans can’t be wrong. During one long whiskey session in the hills several years back I played Infidels to a cousin of mine on my car stereo. I was quite surprised he liked it so much he wants to keep hearing it to this day.
