Blood on the Tracks
After just 2 albums with Asylum Records, Bob Dylan headed back to Columbia Records to release the 1975 album “Blood on the Tracks.” Critics immediately fell in love with this album mainly because of the autobiographical quality of the songs, although Dylan has since denied any relation to his own life. The lyrics are moving, speaking of loss of love, anger and loneliness. Ranked #16 on Rolling Stone’s list of 500 greatest albums of all time, many of the songs were hits by themselves. “Tangled Up in Blue” was one of them as was “You’re a Big Girl Now” and last but not least, “Simple Twist of Fate.” The overall vibe of the album has a great rhythm to it and although many of the songs have a definite sadness to them, they are a wonderful depiction of what Dylan himself may have gone through during this time in his life.
