Rolling StoneThe remarkable achievement of Love and Theft is that Dylan makes the past sound as strange, haunted and alluring as the future... ...more

PopMatters"Love and Theft" sees Dylan roaring back from Highway 61 at full bore, reminding us -- as he did on Blonde on Blonde, The Basement Tapes, and Blood on the Tracks -- that, like him or not, there isn't anybody else who can do his job. ...more

Spin CycleIt doesn't really break any new ground, but that's not the point. This record is about Dylan cutting loose and celebrating the richness of American music. ...more
