DYLAN AT BUDOKAN These live recordings are not over-arranged, and they have drive and style to spare. Stiff-necked rock purists were horrified by the recasting of Dylan's songbook, just as overly-reverent folk purists took umbrage at his electrification. But they're missing out on one of the man's most musical moments. Don't make the same mistake.   In coming up with his "At Budokan" sound, Dylan personally put together the arrangements, creating a masterful interplay of guitars, drums, mandolin, keyboards, harmonica, flute, violin, recorder, and background vocals, which provide just the right dramatic emphasis to his strong, clear, vocals. This recording, more than any other Dylan release, most vividly illustrates the complexity and genius of his song writing abilities, which usually tend to be obscured by his poetry. "Love Minus Zero/No Limit", in which the instruments make their appearance one by one in the intro, is particularly outstanding, as are "Like a Rolling Stone", "Is Your Love in Vain?", "All Along the Watchtower", "I Want You", and the three concluding numbers.

Bob Dylan is famous for constantly re-inventing his songs in concert. Despite holding what is unquestionably the most important catalog of songs that any 20th century artist possesses, Dylan does not treat them with the reverence that many would expect. Instead, he deconstructs them nearly every single tour -- giving them radical new arrangements, changing the sacred lyrics -- and every show is truly different because he NEVER plays a song the same way twice. At Budokan documents Dylan's 1978 tour. It features what are probably the most radical re-arrangements of his entire career. Dylan is in excellent voice here -- It is a great treat to be able to hear him use his late 70's voice on some of his classics. The awards for best arrangements here must be handed to Mr. Tambourine Man, which features an outstanding vocal and some great guitar work; Love Minus Zero/No Limit, which features a beautiful arrangement and actually benefits from the flute; and All Along The Watchtower, which chugs powerfully along, aided by a violin. Especially noteworthy are I Want You, which is positively revelatory in its new-made guise: the spare instrumental backing bypasses the catchy original melody but puts newfound emphasis on the lyrics and succeeds in transforming the song from a pop number into a beautiful, endearing love song; and It's Alright, Ma, I'm Only Bleeding, which boasts a thunderous new arrangement that adds power to the song without burying the remarkable lyrics. Blowin' In The Wind, with its piano-led arrangement, is actually quite good; it recasts the song in a new, more contemporary note, but doesn't deny the power of the words. The album closes out with a beautiful rendition of Forever Young, perhaps the best version of the song ever heard, and a fine take on The Times They Are A-Changin'. Don't Think Twice, It's All Right, is reggae. And Maggie's Farm featuring a new arrangement. Oh, Sister, features a one-chord arrangement that plods along, and All I Really Want To Do, whose arrangement recalls a lullaby. Needless to say, this is an album that only hard-core Bob Dylan fans need bother with. It is quite interesting and features a very generous number of songs with new arrangements.
