Rough and Rowdy Ways — 2020

A rich, unhurried late-career triumph, full of wit, mortality and the sprawling 'Murder Most Foul'. Dylan's writing is as sharp as ever. Proof of a master still working at the height of his powers. Not the entry point, but a satisfying destination.

On vinyl: Released during the vinyl resurgence — new copies are readily available from most record shops.
