5.0 out of 5 stars Darn Good, July 26, 2002

This review is from: The World's Only Bob Dylan Tribute Band (Audio CD)

O.K. Let's face it . If you are the average Dylan fan, you play guitar , know a lot of his songs and over the years have forced a lot of friends to listen to you. But the passion that Joel Gilbert puts into this disc makes you want to jump up and dust off your axe and start jamming. His versions of the material circa 65-66 are just great. The band has got the groove of the original sound ,and Gilbert is not bashful when he belts it out, the harmonica riffs are perfect.The great thing about this disc is that it never seems a parody of Bob even when Gilbert is out and out imitating that "voice " that perhaps should not be imitated but respected. For all Dylan fans who dig cover versions by known artists this is a must to add to your collection. " Gotta Serve Somebody " reminds me of Tom Robinson Band meeting Lou Reed on speed. Enjoy

Another guy trying to make a quick buck off Bob.

Buy the Original done by the real BOB.

We don't need yet another ELVIS....I mean BOB impersonator here. Send them to Vegas.

Folks, this is the REAL deal. Joel Gilbert MUST be the luckiest man on earth, to be blessed with the talents to PLAY these songs and do them justice is an amazing gift; but he also has the look, the passion, and the VOICE as well. I have every CD Bob Dylan has ever released, I love DYLAN; THIS cd is a MUST have for any true Dylan fan. The band has an added edge about them with their sound being spot on for the touring Dylan sound I was lucky enough to hear twice last year. Joel is to be commended too in that he gives the fans something from each era of Dylan's rich legacy, complete with the Dylan sneer and cynicism on Like a Rolling Stone. If anything some of the songs have a little more bite thanks to being produced in the here and now. Excellent guitar work and harmonica play. Things Have Changed is personal favorite, and this version is phenomenal. On Hurricane, you can FEEL Joel's anger and outrage. Positively 4th street is another piece of cathartic relief, you can feel the daggers in every word. There is something here for everyone, Flawless musicianship, great songs, excellent production. Try it, you will be glad you did!!
