I just became acquainted with the whole record finally, after many years of changing of the guard being in my top 10 dylans and knowing senor from biograph.

I dig its vibe a whole lot. The nick cave reveal upthread is perfect. Similarly to desire, a lot of the details do not repay closer scrutiny but it has this great addled rambler feeling. I do wish changing of the guard could have been a whole side long though, fucking love it unreasonably

without "new pony" and "changing of the guard" I would never have gotten into this record at all. still prefer to hear it as "I had a pony; her name was Lucy-Poo" tho.

I see Robbie Fulks is touring his cover of this album (& putting it out as a 2lp). Only know him vaguely through Bloodshot, has anyone seen this? Love Street Legal and like Fulks cover of Is Your Love in Vain that's up on youtube.

It's amazing how "Baby Stop Cryin'" was the hit...in Europe.
