''The Times They Are a-Changin is a 1968 album by Burl Ives, produced by Bob Johnston. It was probably recorded at Columbia Studios in Nashville, with local session musicians. It features songs by Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, and Johnny Cash (all of whom had previously worked with Johnston), songs by Johnston's friend Charlie Daniels, plus other pop or country standards. ==Reception== 〕 }} In his Allmusic review, critic Richie Unterberger heavily criticized the attempt at having Ives "go electric" as other folk musicians were at the time, calling the album the "most ludicrous" attempt. He wrote Ives' "voice was shaky, the arrangements bland MOR, and the whole enterprise a mesh of ill-fitting pieces. Nowhere is that more evident than in the title track, which devolves into a grandly intended spoken intonation of the lyrics that succeeds only in getting Ives to make a fool of himself."〔 In contrast, Billboard's reception at the time was quite favorable: "His first Columbia single 'I'll Be Your Baby Tonight' leads off this parade of Ives renditions, as he's in fine voice on that and other recent pop hits. 'Little Green Apples,' 'Homeward Bound' and 'If I Were a Carpenter' are perfect for Ives style and feel."〔"Album Reviews," ''Billboard'', July 20, 1968, p. 73.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Times They Are A-Changin' (Burl Ives album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
