Bob Dylan – Desire (CD)
Product Details
Released in January 1976, Desire arrived at a moment when Dylan was pulling together a remarkable creative circle, with violinist Scarlet Rivera's weaving lines becoming as central to the album's identity as anything he'd written. Co-written largely with Jacques Levy, the songs lean into narrative and character in ways that connect back to the folk ballad tradition Dylan had always carried close.
Dylan's 17th studio album-a well-received follow-up to Blood on the Tracks -spent 5 weeks at the top of the Billboard Pop Albums chart and marked a return to topical songwriting and folk tales.
One of his more collaborative efforts, the album hosts a caravan of musicians from the Rolling Thunder Revue, plus backing vocals from a then-unknown Emmylou Harris. Includes Hurricane; Isis; Mozambique; One More Cup of Coffee (Valley Below); Oh, Sister ; the epic Joey; Romance in Durango; Black Diamond Bay, and Dylan's emotional ode to his crumbling relationship, Sara.
