Blood on the Tracks is definitely art. Dylan played around with this type of storytelling, musical arrangements and escalating scales of emotion over the course of albums in the past but he pretty much nailed it here. There is a line in 'Buckets of Rain' which is a bit shit. And he rhymes 'paint' with 'saint' in Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts but it helps to carry the plot so that's OK in my book.
