Fav Dylan LPs?

What are you favorite Bob Dylan albums? Why? I know many a critic, fan, and label PR person has talked about his legacy, but what does his music mean to you? Is it "amazing"? Is it "crap"? How do you feel, and what records make you feel that way.

Blonde on Blonde has my favorite song of all time in FOURTH TIME AROUND, but I think once in a while I find myself enjoying Desire and even Bringing It All Back Home (especially It's Alright Ma) a bit more in terms of listening straight through. TTAAC comes close though too, as Boots of Spanish Leather in in my top five.

In my, humble, ultimately worthless opinion, dylan is the greatest living musician in terms of his catalogue... Desire... Blood on the Tracks... Highway 61 revisited... Blonde on Blonde... Freewheelin'... Times they are a changin'... Love and Theft... Modern TImes... JOhn Wesley Harding... Bringing it all back home... Slow Train Coming... Time out of mind... Why even bother? Hero.

Too hard to say, too many to choose from. I can listen to pretty much all of his albums straight through. I love his bootleg releases as well, especially Vols. 1-3. But if I had to say 1 LP, I'll go w/........Ahh, I don't know...his self-titled '62 release.

Blood On The Tracks has to be my favourite. It's Dylan's most mature output by far as well as being the tightest and most consistently high quality. I love Blonde On Blonde but it just doesn't have the cohesion of Blood... Bringing It All Back Home comes a very close second, such a stunningly daring move away from what was expected of him, musically and lyrically

Nashville Skyline is the most played Dylan album on my iTunes.

I've really enjoyed Nashville Skyline and Blonde on Blonde the most.

I'm not a Dylan fan but, I do respect him for how much he's influenced music today

Nashville Skyline is my favourite. He had just finished all these amazing albums like Blonde on Blonde and Highway 61, and I don't think anyone could have seen it coming. His voice is completely different than other album, some of the songs are simple but amazingly catchy, others are just brilliant. Best album to put on in the middle of Sunday afternoon.

John Wesley Harding. Highway 61 and Blonde On Blonde are great albums, but a year later when people were expecting another album accompanied by another larger scale band, they find out it's mostly just him, a bass player and a drummer. That's it!

Some songs like I'll Be Your Baby Tonight and All Along The Watchtower sound much better simplified, and in a way it's also an ode to his acoustic days with asongs like St. Augustine probably working on an album like Freewheelin' or even Another Side.

boots of spanish leather is amazing..its melody is almost identical to girl from the north country though...best songs on each of the albums
