5 out of 5 stars Odetta's Best and a great Dylan cover album.   March 4, 2005
  7 out of 7 found this review helpful

Wow... What an album! From the opening bars of the celebratory 'Baby I'm in the Mood for You' through all the tracks including her chilling reading of 'Masters of War, Odetta's interpretations of Dylan's songs are spellbinding. If you do not know this album give it a listen. If you are a Dylan or Odetta fan go out and get yourself a copy. A true classic, don't ignore it!


5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Dylan Cover Albums   May 30, 2004

An awesome album. Odetta's version of "Don't Think Twice" is one of the best Dylan covers I have ever heard.


4 out of 5 stars The gospel Tracks (songs of Bob dylan)   February 14, 2002
Those of you who know Bob Dylan's songs will appreciate this one. Some of these takes just grab you and don't let go till the end and then you'll need to hear them again. WOW! Bob's songs are trully adaptable and hearing them sung this way is a treat.

First of all you have to go back to the original Bob Dylan songs that Odetta has chosen to sing and remember when she did this record to appreciate the renditions of these songs. Odetta takes each one and adds her own unique style to capture her feelings in relation to the song. After 30 plus years of being a Bob Dylan fan, it was nice to hear someone else do his songs other that Joan B. or Judy C. although these gals do him jsutice too.
thank you Odetta. CA from Calif.



3 out of 5 stars A treat for Dylan cover fans   August 30, 2001
  5 out of 6 found this review helpful

If you are not already a Dylan (or an Odetta) fan, this is not the place the start. But if like me you can't resist a good Dylan cover, this album is a treat. I've had this album for years on vinyl and jumped at the chance to get it on CD. The real gems here are the obscure songs: "Baby, I'm in the mood for you", "Long ago, far away", and "Walking down the line". The better known tunes suffer in comparison with the oft-heard originals or covers by bigger stars. Odetta's voice is a marvel no matter what she is singing. The finger picked guitars and acoustic bass accompaniment provide a sparse, classic folk setting.
