Bob Dylan - The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan on numbered limited edition Hybrid SACD from Mobile Fidelity

Dylan's 1963 sophomore effort marked by ambitious poetry, melodies, and moral convictions transforming songwriting, folk, and pop music

 Includes "Masters of War," "Blowin' in the Wind," and "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall"

This product is a Hybrid SACD designed to play in both CD and SACD players, as well as all SACD-compatible DVD players. It's the album the ignited sea changes in pop culture, music, songwriting, poetry, and the social consciousness. It's the creation of a 22-year-old visionary still years away from casting a jaundiced eye to the media. It's the sound of change, the feeling of ground shifting beneath one's feet, and the entrance of an entirely new way of thinking. It's the effective beginning of what's arguably the boldest career in music history, the yawning vortex into the complex mind, supernatural wordplay, and folk techniques of a vocalist/guitarist whose name is forever associated with transformation. It's The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan.  

This is the very finest, most transparent digital stereo edition of The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan ever produced. Never before has the resonance of his nylon guitar strings, fingerpicked notes, shivering harmonica fills, or plainspoken timbre possessed such clarity, openness, body, or realism.

Exponentially surpassing the potential he demonstrated on his debut, Dylan became a mirror of the concerns, issues, and feelings confronting the nation. Writing and singing with penetrating honesty, observational wit, moral conviction, and scathing emotion, he digs into the madness of war ("Masters of War," "A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall"), hypocrisy of segregation ("Oxford Town"), urgency of civil rights and freedom ("Blowin' in the Wind"), and multiple angles of unrequited love ("Girl From the North Country," "Don't Think Twice It's All Right") with a literate astuteness and depth that, nearly 50 years later, still leave audiences slack-jawed.

OUTSTANDING RECORDING posted on 04/14/2013 5 Stars Reviewer: Clive The depth of voice was detailed and you could almost 'feel' the performer moving between the notes. There was no background sound to distract the listener. I hope that this will be the standanrd for all of the Dylan titles to be issued by MOFI. Highly recommended.
