Why This Record Matters
On Desire, Bob Dylan builds story-driven songs around a vivid folk-rock band sound, with Scarlet Rivera’s violin giving many tracks their distinctive edge. “Hurricane” tells the story of boxer Rubin Carter, while “Isis” unfolds like a dark travel tale; both show Dylan’s collaboration with lyricist Jacques Levy.
