...name makes such an inviting target-provoked a furious attack from the Art Dealers Association of America, a group of 105 of the leading U.S. dealers. Though not known for its militancy in the past, and hardly opposed to the profit motive, this eminent body went for the jugular. Rocky's reproductions, it said, "are not works of fine art, have no intrinsic aesthetic worth and have little or no resale value."

Dylan's past couple of records have found him hitting, missing, mostly flailing, but Street-Legal lands home pretty clean. Among jugular reveries and cyclonic voyages to the end of the night, it is the love songs that stand out. Dylan sings them in a variety of moods: surly wit ("Do you love me/ Or are you just extending good will?"); sidelong irony ("Betrayed by a kiss/ On a cool night of bliss/ In the valley of the missing link"); even a certain...
