Specialists/collaborators reviews

"Trouble" is Jamie Saft's tribute to Bob Dylan's music. Happily, almost all songs are taken not from list of most popular Dylan's compositions, so it doesn't sound as "one more collection of hits".

Eight songs are played by semi-acoustic piano/Hammond led jazz-rock trio,with two vocal compositions. First one,"Ballad Of A Thin Man",is sung by Mike Patton, and it hardly add something to Dylan's original.Second,"Living The Blues", has Antony (of Antony and the Johnsons)on vocals,it brings some cabaret atmosphere to the song. Other compositions are instrumentals, and to be honest vocal-less songs sound really more attractive:jazz trio plays acoustic piano based swing or Hammond-led bluesy jazz rock using great Dylan's material.

This album is not about experimentation or unusual reading of Dylan's originals,it's about atmosphere and about love to the great musician.Them both are in the air when album's music sounds, and this is a main value of "Trouble".
