Bob Dylan hit a bit of a rough patch as the freewheelin’ 1980s gave way to the dour 1990s. Dylan ended the MTV decade on a high note with September 1989’s Oh Mercy—a visceral, smoky triumph produced by Daniel Lanois—but he stumbled out of the new-decade gate with the half-hearted mishmosh sheen of September 1990’s Under the Red Sky.
Dylan subsequently spent the balance of the ’90s focusing on releasing archival material (including the first entry in his deservedly lauded Bootleg Series) along with. (Dylan co-produced under current , Jack Frost.)
