I was running an errand with my two sick boys this afternoon, and &#8220;Hurricane&#8221; was on. The song&#8217;s a bit of a mess on many levels, but I love hearing Dylan fired up and casting accusations left and right, the way he did so effectively in his prime. He&#8217;s so full of righteous indignation that he resorts to throwing out some curse words and other language I don&#8217;t recall him using prior to that song. When I hear that song I still feel as charged up as I did when I was 13 or so, whenever it first came out and got occasional airplay. I&#8217;ve <em>liked<\/em> some Dylan songs since then, and I <em>respect<\/em> some others, but my enthusiasm tells me that &#8220;Hurricane&#8221; is the last great Dylan song.
