Dylan’s latest may not match the late-career achievement that was 2001’s Love & Theft, but it somehow combines that album’s rambunctious tone with Nashville Skyline’s laid-backed vibe, Planet Waves’s rushed energy, and Desire’s obliviousness to contemporary trends. In short, a minor triumph to be enjoyed on its own terms.
