Bob Dylan's Christian Albums

Hi there.

I have found Bob Dylan's Christian albums are often missing in otherwise
"complete" Discography-torrents about the man, with the exception of "Slow Train Coming", presumeably because of the hits from that album.

"Saved", on the other hand, I had to look long and hard to find, and also "Shot Of Love"
I find that remarkable, but understandable.

"Slow Train.." is a great album, and it does include many great tracks. I like it. "Gotta Serve Somebody" "Slow Train", "When He Returns" and especially the song "I believe in You" stand out as radical testimonies of his newfound treasure..

But my personal favourite is the album "Saved", on wich one great song follows another.
On "What can I do for You", Dylan plays the most beautiful, tender sounds on his harmonica.
"Saved", "Covenant Woman", "Saving Grace"; they're all great tracks. But the world in general doesn't seem to think so..?
My advice is to listen in silence, starting from track no. 1, and see what happens..

"Shot Of Love" is an accuired taste, I feel. Don't know if I can tell you more than that. If you like it, you like it. Hopefully even that album will draw the listener closer to Jesus, but if that's what you want (and it should be..?), I'd go for "Saved" .. :-)
