Album Notes & Community Reviews
Infamously baffling critics and fans alike upon release, Bob Dylan's sprawling double album of covers, live tracks, and loose country-rock jams is a deeply controversial document. 'Self Portrait' is wonderfully mellow and bizarrely eclectic, utilizing lush Nashville Sound production to present a highly satirical, deeply sarcastic deconstruction of his own legendary persona.
