Under the Red Sky

Bob Dylan

A surreal collection of nursery-rhyme fables wrapped in slick 1990s production. All-star cameos meet cryptic, playful lyrics in Dylan's most polarizing era.

It's Bob Dylan's weirdest '90s pop experiment where he sings nursery rhymes with Slash on guitar.

A disorienting blend of childlike playfulness and looming, cryptic dread.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The jarring juxtaposition of Slash's hard-rock guitar licks against the nursery-rhyme simplicity of Wiggle Wiggle.
George Harrison's slide guitar solo on the title track, providing a moment of genuine melodic grace amidst the album's oddity.
The heavy, bluesy stomp of 10,000 Men where Stevie Ray Vaughan's guitar adds a grit that contrasts with the polished production.
