Haha if you don't mind religious undertones, but you need long twangy jams, I like The Campbell Brothers. Its all on Youtube...

Ten minute pedal steel solos basically every song. Not quite in the realm of Brad Paisley...

It reminds me a lot of 'I Feel Fine' by the Beatles. Obviously the crossover occured directly with the cover of 'Act Naturally.' I've always been enamored by that small period in the mid-Sixties where pop and rock guitarists took as many cues from country as they did blues. Using chords and double stops to solo, only sparingly reverting to single note lines.

It sounded like another one of those bad self parodies for the first few verses but it sucked me in halfway and I found it very emotional by the end. Not an all time classic but it’s got something special going on. His piano playing is great too, and I love hearing tony use a bow.

The lyrics are one thing, but the musicianship on these two new tracks is pretty interesting. its like if Godspeed You Black Emperor played a standard I-IV-V kinda progression - its drawn out and ambient to back Dylan's near-spoken word delivery, and so the way those old familiar chords resolve has a new feel to it.

the lyrical content of these new tracks reminds me of somebody Dylan is a big fan of - John Trudell. He has a song called "Baby Boom Che" that I think serves as a nice companion to the train of thought Dylan is on with "Murder Most Foul."

great live album I just discovered is John Prine's September 78

if you like John Prine, and you like the raw energy of electric Bob Dylan circa 1966, this album kills

even if the lyrics of John Prine weren't there its just a great sounding live album instrumentally

Dylan sold his entire catalog for around $300 million, they think.
