Slow Train Coming

Dylan's born again album. I just think that it's great music. Right there with "Blood On The Tracks" as his best from the 1970's and 80's. And there's Mark Knopfler on guitar!!

Dylan appeared on Saturday Night Live back then. Viewing the program in those days was a Saturday evening routine for me, before the first big cast change in the Not Ready For Prime Time Players. He played songs from the new album. I have to remind myself that this was new music in the late 70's not the classic that I view it as today. I was still in the process of getting to know the songs. As I recall they gave him the time to perform three songs. Two songs has generally been the norm.
