Dylan is the greatest poet songwriter of the modern era. In his 68th year (on his 33rd studio album) we continue to pay revenant attention, even though he wheezes and croaks, offers up Tin Pan Alley rhymes and oft-used melodies. Together Through Life is a beautifully played collection of antique blues pop. A warm, wheezy accordion (played by David Hidalgo of Los Lobos) lends a borderline Tex Mex flavour. The rocking Shake, Shake Mama has the gaudy spirit of some great forgotten 45 Dylan might pull out on his Theme Time Radio Hour.
At least half of the songs are wry, even slightly comic tales of ordinary American lives of desire, heartbreak and remorse from an artfully conjured cast of lustful suitors (Jolene), henpecked husbands (My Wife's Home Town) and repentant drunks (If You Ever Go To Houston). They are held in place by richer and more mysterious material, swampy blues rock opener Beyond Here Lies Nothing, elegantly longing Forgetful Heart (worthy of Oh Mercy), and the cheerfully apocalyptic album closer, It's All Good. Dylan catalogues the hardships facing a broken land and concludes each verse with the title phrase, a banal colloquialism that expresses so much about American optimism. It all adds up to a lively portrait of an idea of America, heroically struggling for dignity in an uncaring world. It is a place Dylan himself casts doubt on with the disturbing conclusion to Forgetful Heart, an image of a "door that's closed forevermore / If indeed there ever was a door''. - telegraph.co.uk FlameUpload
