ONCE UPON A TIME.....Infidels

 

BOB DYLAN  Infidels  (Columbiaq,1983) - Rock


     An album heralded as a return from Bob Dylan's born-again proselytizing, the Mark Knopfler-produced Infidels began Bob Dylan's journey back toward mainstream music making — and it may have been even better except for some last-minute tinkering.
     Luckily, the final track listing included the stand-out song "Jokerman," which found Dylan using themes both Biblical and secular to tear down political charlatans. Or was it a dark reflection on Judaism? A rumination on false messiahs? A cutting indictment of his own career missteps?
     Such are the enduring mysteries of classic Dylan, the singer-songwriter’s wild card. In a way, that makes Infidels, the earliest indication of the long-hoped-for bounce-back moment that would finally coalesce into the '90s.

ONCE UPON A TIME.....Still

  PETE SINFIELD  Still  (Manticore,1973) - Progressive rock       The name Pete Sinfield may not mean much to the casual prog observer but to aficionados his identity will always be linked to  King Crimson . As the band’s lyricist and, to a degree,  Robert Fripp ’s artistic muse, Sinfield contributed the lyrics to the first four Crimson albums.        For reasons unknown, the firm of Fripp and Sinfield ceased trading circa 1971 but, rather cunningly, former KC bassist  Greg Lake , perhaps sensing a lack of lyrical gravitas, created a similar role for him in the world-conquering  ELP .       Still , Sinfield’s first and only solo album was unveiled to the public in May 1973 and was quickly sidestepped by all but a very few discerning members of the progressive rock-buying public.  TRACKLIST : The Song Of The Sea Goat                        ...

ONCE UPON A TIME.....Garcia

  JERRY GARCIA  Garcia  (WB,1972) - Folk/Psychedelic rock       One thing you have to say about Jerry Garcia -- he sure does work a lot! In fact, considering the multitude of duties which being a mainstay of the Grateful Dead and part-time guitarist with Howard Wales' group must impose on him, it's hard to imagine where Garcia found the time and energy to do this solo album. The songs, written by Jerry in collaboration with Billy Kreutzmann and Robert Hunter, are very much in the style of recent Dead compositions -- rocking country-blues numbers. Save for "Late for Supper," which is an otherworldly electronic attempt, any one of them could have been tacked onto the  American Beauty  package. In other words, they're not downright country as the songs on  Workingman's Dead ,  but pretty nearly. Garcia takes his customary delight in being able to pump the pedal steel for all it's worth and sings with the sort of carefree diligence which h...
