slow traim comming Lost it in a move, I'm glad I finally found it again. I had this album in the late 70's. Bob Dylan did a fine job on Slow Train Coming.
great lyrics
This album is filled with meaningful songs (as with his other albums), and it's great to listen to whether you are a Christian or not. Bob Dylan's first album since he became a born-again Christian. Some of my favourites are "I Believe In You" and "When He Returns" musically and lyrically. I also very much enjoy the words of "Man Gave Names To All The Animals", especially the end of the song. (you should listen to at least this song!) I would definitely recommend this album! .
Anointed
I play it in my car during my commute and it lifts my day. Thirty years after it was made, this collection still has a powerful and fresh anointing. Since the Lord is not limited by time and space, the special anointing of this album is always "now. " Mark Knopfler is outstanding on guitar and the perfect foil for Bob Dylan's sold-out-in-love-with-the-Lord lyrics and vocals. I love this album.
Slow Train Coming
Dylan's lyrics are laden with his at the time new found faith. Slow Train Coming being Dylan's 1979 release and his 19th studio album and it is very good album. Gotta serve somebody is a great track and he sings with such conviction that one can not help but to be moved his faith. The book-let is a mixed bag with an ok cover, very sparse information and an ok photo of Dylan. To my big surprise this was a record that included Mark Knopfler from Dire Straits playing guitar. 4/5.
.
One Of Bob's Best!
You have got the usual brilliance of Dylan's songwriting along with Knopfler's own style of guitar in the background makes this a very enjoyable album. As a huge Dylan fan and an even bigger Knopfler fan, this ranks as one of my all time favourite Dylan albums. Highlights to me include Precious Angel, Slow Train and the quite funny Man Gave Names To All The Animals. If you enjoy this album, and yuo don't already have it, grab Infidels next.
