Bob Dylan - 'Modern Times'

Bob Dylan is eligible for his senior citizen�s bus pass now so does he still have the ability to create a fantastic album? Well, after giving his latest album �Modern Times� a spin, the answer to that would have to be �yes��
Dylan�s latest album shows the 65-year-old at the finest he�s been in years. Right from the magnificent bluesy opener, �Thunder On The Mountain�, �Modern Times� shows that time has not withered Dylan�s capacity to write strong, moving songs which transcend any styles, fashions or fads. �Spirit On The Water� must rate among some of the most beautiful songs he�s ever written, he breathes fresh life into Muddy Waters� �Rollin� And Tumblin� and produces a sorrowful lament on �When The Deal Goes Down� which will bring a tear to your eye� And that�s all before we even reach the glorious ballad �Workingman�s Blues #2� and the dark journey through the album�s magnificent closer �Ain�t Talkin��� There�s definitely plenty of life left in Mr Zimmerman yet�
