The Roxy Music covers were indeed kitsch...the very epitome of kitsch. I figure people would either love them or hate them. I'm sure they succeeded in their basic objective...getting noticed, and selling.

Peter - Well, "Dark Eyes" is excellent, yes. In my opinion so are "Tight Connection To My Heart", "Trust Yourself", and "When The Night Comes Falling From The Sky". That's 4 really good songs. Some of the others are pretty turgid...but I like the way they sound nonetheless. It remains one of my favourite Dylan albums.

I hated it when it first came out, but loved it by a few years later. Got the vinyl one right here by the computer.
