But I think Bob is much more disciplined as a writer of lyrics, as a poet. Each song has its own secret that’s different from another song, and each has its own life….I’d say I was more disciplined. One of the great parts about production is that it demonstrates to you that you have to be flexible.

Knopfler who featured here with Let It All Go and the Going Home soundtrack theme of the movie Local Hero said about his experience making the record Infidels: Dylan initially wanted to produce the album himself, but feeling that technology had passed him by, he approached a number of contemporary artists who were more at home in a modern recording studio. David Bowie, Frank Zappa and Elvis Costello were all approached before Dylan hired Knopfler. The critical reaction was the strongest for Dylan in years, almost universally hailed for its songwriting and performances. Many critics saw Dylan return to secular music in Infidels as also a return to musical form. Now, they take him and they teach him and they groom him for lifeĪnd they set him on a path where he’s bound to get ill She say who gonna take away his license to kill? She just sit there as the night grows still Man thinks ’cause he rules the earth he can do with it as he please Infidels gained much attention for its focus on more personal themes, in addition to commentary (such as with today’s song License To Kill) on the environment and geopolitics. Infidels was produced by Mark Knopfler and Dylan himself and is seen as his return to secular music, following a conversion to Christianity and a subsequent return to a less religious lifestyle.

Another notable outtake was Someone’s Got a Hold of My Heart which I also treasure.

It boggles the senses how he could just leave those two off the record, but any-hows. License To Kill is the fifth song so far to appear here from Bob Dylan’s 1983 record Infidels – if I include the Blind Willie McTell and Foot of Pride out-takes from the sessions.
