The Wallflowers' leader Jakob Dylan managed to escape the shadow of his legendary father the old fashioned way: he earned it. Delivering a decade's worth of solid, no-nonsense rootsy rock & roll without ever getting boring or descending into clich� is no easy task, but the Wallflowers albums have always set a high standard by remaining literate and well-crafted. COLLECTED 1996-2005 lives up to its name, cherry picking tracks from all four of the designated decade's studio albums, including the Wallflowers' biggest hits "6th Avenue Heartache" and "One Headlight."
Growing up in the shadow of Bob Dylan would be too much for many, let alone trying to make it in the same field as the legendary troubadour. But Bob's son Jakob Dylan succeeded on his own terms when his band the Wallflowers hit it big with their own brand of roots rock in the 1990s and 2000s. Not ashamed of their admiration for Bob, Neil Young, or the Band, the Wallflowers became one of the genre's biggest acts by the turn of the century.
