Bob Dylan's 'New Morning' arrived in late 1970, a surprising but welcome return to a more accessible, warm sound after the challenging 'Self Portrait.'
- 'New Morning' was recorded in New York City during the summer of 1970 with producer Bob Johnston, who had also helmed 'Blonde on Blonde' and 'Self Portrait.'
- The album features contributions from several notable musicians, including Al Kooper on keyboards and Charlie Daniels on bass.
- While 'Self Portrait' had been met with critical bewilderment, 'New Morning' was generally well-received, with critics noting Dylan's return to more conventional songwriting.
