#GreatAlbums1980s - #BobDylan – Oh Mercy (1989). For decades, those convinced Dylan was finally done were forced to eat their words whenever the Bobmeister made one of his occasional returns (mostly) to form. Oh Mercy swept aside a decade of middling LPs with a set charged with passion and indignation on "Political World," "Everything is Broken" and the astounding "What Was It You Wanted." Daniel Lanois captured Dylan's aging rasp against a touch of Louisiana swamp boogie.
