3 Reasons Nashville Saved Blonde on Blonde
New York sessions were unproductive The album started in October 1965 at Columbia’s Studio A in New York City, but little usable material came from those sessions.
Nashville offered a fresh start At producer Bob Johnston’s suggestion, Dylan, Al Kooper, and Robbie Robertson moved to Nashville, where the atmosphere and musicians were more conducive to recording.
The bulk of the album was cut quickly Most of Blonde on Blonde was recorded in February and March 1966 in Nashville, turning a stalled project into a finished masterpiece.
