5 Stars for New Dylan Tune Alone!, 16 Feb 2000
By "12reader12" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wonder Boys (Audio CD)
Although I wish that the other Dylan tunes were NOT released versions, Things Have Changed makes it all worthwhile! Dylan's view, looking forward, drips with sarcasm, and his voice is as beautiful as ever...makes you hungry for a whole album of Dylan's driving acoustic sound, and the raspy voice, sounding as if he's the only one honest enough to tell you what you already know....

5 Stars For Dylan, 19 Feb 2000
By Gianmarco Manzione - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wonder Boys (Audio CD)
Bob Dylan continues his second...or third...or fourth wind, following the grammy award winning "Time Out Of Mind" of 1997. His new single, "Things have hanged" is as powerful as Dylan's songwriting has been in ages...this includes Time Out Of Mind. It recalls the genius of "Tweeter And The Monkey Man" from his first Traveling Wilbury's effort in 1988. Things have Changed is an accoustic driven rocker that is pushed home by a pounding drum beat unheard of in anything Dylan has ever put to tape. It just may be the strongest song Dylan has recorded since the mid 70's. meanwhile, one of many stellar classics from the Neil young archives, "Old Man," as well as Leonard Cohen's surreal "Waiting For The Miracle" and plenty of soul masterpieces make this perhaps the finest soundtrack anyone can own. For once, one can listen to the songs on this album and actually have a sense of what the film is about. That is a rare achievement these days. "Wonder Boys" is a top notch purchase.

These ARE the 'wonder boys!', 25 April 2000
By Christopher P. Dunn - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Wonder Boys (Audio CD)
For those of us who grew up, musically, in the 60s and 70s, this is an incredible collection of songs, from a wonderful and charming film, that will carry you back. Who spoke louder during those years than Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Tim Hardin, Van Morrison, and others! The songs compiled here are a great mix of classics (e.g., Tim Hardin's "Reason To Believe," Neil Young's "Old Man") and new songs by old-timers. Most notable among the latter are Dylan's dreamy and mystical "Things Have Changed," written specifically for the film, and Van Morrison's hard-driving "Philosophers Stone." Dylan has figured prominently in folk and rock music to this day, and is "rewarded" in a sense with four songs, the oldest being "Buckets of Rain" from "Blood on The Tracks."The song listing is provided above, so there is no sense in repeating it here. Suffice it to say that this a tremendous, emotional, and poetic collection of marvelous songs to go along with a tremendous, emotional, and poetic film. I have played this CD over and over again, and have been madly digging out old vinyl records of a number of these artists (e.g., Buffalo Springfield) to recapture the wonder of this music's heritage.
The title of the film could just as easily have referred to the singers recorded here. They are all "wonder boys."
