Desire

“Desire” is the seventeenth studio album by Bob Dylan. Unlike most of his solo records, Bob collaborated with various artists in this effort, such as Emmylou Harris and Ronee Blakley. Notably, legendary guitarist and longtime Bob’s friend, Eric Clapton, played guitar on “Romance In Durango”. The album’s cover is tentatively inspired by and reminiscent of John Phillips' 1970 album John Phillips (John, the Wolf King of L.A.). “Desire” marked Bob’s heavy resurgence on social themes, especially in the opening song “Hurricane”, one of the most acclaimed protest songs in music history. The album sold more than 4 million records, including 2 million in the US and 500,000 in France. Many accolades regard it among the finest works of the 1970s, with Rolling Stone placing it No. 174 on its list of The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
