BOB DYLAN Released His Back To His Roots Album ‘MODERN TIMES’ 20 Years Ago Today
Significant longplayers from yesteryear
29 August 2026
Legendary singer-songwriter virtuoso BOBÂ DYLAN released his 32nd LP,
titled MODERN TIMES on 29 August 2026, today 20 years ago.
It topped the US Charts and peaked at #2 in the UK.
Pitchfork said: “The music legend returns with a companion piece
to 2001’s Love and Theft, offering new tracks of jazz-inspired, rockabilly-
scamming, ragtime-aping rock’n’roll, more heavily indebted to blues
and honky-tonk than Woody Guthrie and Folkways.”
Turn Up The Volume: My all-time favorite singer-songwriter goes
back to the 50s/60s on this one. Several musical genres that inspired
his extraordinary career are featured. Past rather than modern times.
