Well give me time, sir

I dug out Empire Burlesque after reading David Fricke’s excellent piece on Dylan’s early ’80s [MOJO 335]. Out of the three albums featured it’s the one

I knew least. My copy looked pristine. I have to say it’s a very fine album; sure, there are some songs where it sounds like Dylan is looking at his watch, but the last four – Emotionally Yours, When The Night…, Something’s Burning Baby and, of course, Dark Eyes – are magnificent. Many thanks for the feature and allowing me to dig up a buried treasure. Also many thanks for the Faust piece. Ended up buying The Faust

Tapes because of this. Mark McKay, Halifax
