[Mudboy Slim]

"For any Dylan fan who hasn't checked it out, Love and Theft was a really great album."

I bought it recently and have listened to it casually a coupla times, but it hasn't grabbed me yet...which songs do you recommend I give a serious listen to?!

I think it's packed with great lyrics. This from "Po' Boy":


Othello told Desdemona, "I'm cold, cover me with a blanket.
By the way, what happened to that poison wine?"
She says, "I gave it to you, you drank it."
Poor boy, layin' 'em straight - pickin' up the cherries fallin' off the plate

Time and love has branded me with its claws
Had to go to Florida, dodgin' them Georgia laws
Poor boy, in the hotel called the Palace of Gloom
Calls down to room service, says, "Send up a room"

IMO, it's a very inconsistent album, but the songs Mississippi, High Water, and Sugar Baby are the standouts.
