		<description><![CDATA[Back when I closed down the site in 2006, I was in touch with the Dylan folks to try to get some kind of an official status for the site. It stranded because the licencees for the sheet music sales didn&#8217;t like the idea. My guess is that these &#8220;licencees&#8221; are just some branch of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Time for another track, perhaps. This one is a long time coming as well. It started with the idea that this song has two faces. One is the defiant, harsh, &#8220;screw you&#8221; character that puts it in the category with Positively 4th Street and Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat. The cocky, major-key bravado that says: &#8220;you may [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jokerman is, without any doubt whatsoever, one of the great classics on a rollercoaster album such as Infidels. The single-guitar version on dylanchords, however, never really did it for me: great song, great harmonies, but so thin when you&#8217;re alone with your guitar, without the exquisite drums&#8217;n'bass work by Sly and Robbie. Then, one day, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love this album. It’s a perfect follow-up, not to Dylan’s trilogy of albums vacuum-cleaning the American song tradition for inspiration, but to his Theme Time Radio Hour. (And for the record, my negative evaluation of his latest studio albums does not stem from indignation over ‘theft’, should anyone have gotten that impression, but from [...]]]></description>

With its ghastly cover — rivalled in tackiness only by Shot of Love — and its unequivocal title, it has proved [...]]]></description>

The other is that it [...]]]></description>
