This is a painfully average Dylan album. If you're new or fairly new to the great man, this is no place to start. There's one great song - Jokerman. Aside from that there are are 2 or 3 others that are worth listening to a few times: Sweetheart Like You, License to Kill and Don't Fall Apart On Me Tonight. The rest is mediocre and second rate. If you're already familiar with a dozen of his classic and near-classic albums and want to fill in the gaps, then you should look into it. Non-essential Bob, this one. If you're looking for an introduction to 80s Bob, start with the much superior (but short of classic) No Mercy from 1989.
