Review

Rolling Stone (5/31/69, p.36) - "...continues Dylan's rediscovered romance with rural music....a jewel of construction....NASHVILLE SKYLINE achieves the artistically impossible: a deep, human, and interesting statement about being happy..."

Recording information: 1969.

Dylan's (first) country record helped provide template for Americana movement, and yielded top-10 hit "Lay Lady Lay."

It is hard to recall now how deeply unfashionable country music was in 1969-- Dylan's label, Columbia, dismayed at his apparent retrogression, begged him to remove the word NASHVILLE from the album's title. However, as usual, he proved ahead of the game; his embrace of country ushered in Gram Parsons, the Flying Burrito Brothers, and scores of subsequent artists under the Americana banner. Prescient too was his nod to Johnny Cash, with whom he duets on the gorgeous "Girl From The North Country." Buoyed by an altered, near-crooning vocal style, most of the tracks are pleasant and enduring; the chart hit "Lay Lady Lay" remains one of Dylan's most engaging songs.

3 out of 5 stars Minor Dylan, but still worthwhile, February 7, 2008
By Burritobrother
By any measure "Nashville Skyline" must be considered one of Bob Dylans minor albums. His songwriting here is good but not anywhere near great, and the entire album doesnt even clock in at a half-hour. Yet theres still a bit to be discovered here he seems to be involved with the records overtly country leanings and is quite obviously enjoying himself, delivering some of his more, shall we say, "normal" vocal performances.One More Night, I Threw It All Away and the classic Lay Lady Lay are easily the best tracks on offer here, although not a one can be considered among his best. All things considered, Dylan didnt pioneer anything at all with this album. Rick Nelson, the Monkees and the Byrds (among others) had already laid down even more significant inroads in the country-rock landscape, and at the same time as this album the Flying Burrito Brothers were beginning their 30-year career of defining and redefining the genre. But Dylan sure didnt hurt anything, either.
