Fav Dylan Album?

[ratsprayer]

are you all high or something?  i've seen too few mentions of HIGHWAY 61 REVISITED for my liking.   >:(











 ;)

I can't do just one, so here's three:

Blood On The Tracks
Bringing It All Back Home
The Freewheelin' Bob Dlyan


Favourite track, hands down is "Desolation Row".  The first time I heard that song it knocked me on my ass, kicked me in the ribs, then picked me up and took me out for supper.

[ManNamedTruth]

I don't have them all but probably either:
Blonde on Blonde or
Highway 61 revisited

I've been listening to Time Out Of Mind an obscene amount lately.  It's just sooo good.  So dark and perfect.  Bob is just spewing venom and I love it.

As I haven't posted here yet... Basement Tapes is my favorite. Love and Theft a close second.

[The Big Come Up]

Brining It All Back Home
"love minus zero/no limit" nuff said.

[nittygritty]

Nashville Skyline for sure. Blonde on Blonde second.  But Nashville Skyline is the greatest album of all time.

Anyone going to pick up The Bootleg Series, Vol. 8 today?  I think I'm going to pass for now, 'cause I've only got one other volume (which is incredible).  

[Love Dogg]

Planet Waves.

Some tracks include:
Tough Mama
Forever Young (two versions)
Something There Is About You
The Wedding Song
Going, Going, Gone
On A Night Like This

You KNOW I'm getting a copy.  I've got most of the material through actual bootlegs but I'll pay the money for the boost in quality, if there is any.  That's just the kind of Dylan fan I am.  I would definitely check out volumes 1-7 first unless you just have a thing for later Dylan (which a lot of people do).

Blonde on Blonde hands down.....his MTV Unplugged is easily my favorite though

I've got a thing for all Dylan, but not to your extent as of yet.   ;)

I've got Vol. 4 and am debating between Vol. 1-3 or Vol. 6 next - I watched The Other Side of the Mirror on the weekend and "Who Killed Davey Moore?" floored me like the first time I heard "Desolation Row".  Which would you suggest first between those two?

That's a tough question.  If you're already familiar with the material on Times They are a-Changin and Another Side of then I'd go with vol 1-3.  It's a great collection.  Kind of the first wave of unreleased material after dylan let columbia open the vaults. there are a lot of real gems on there from throughout his career.

Thanks for the advice, that'll be the next one I pick up.  

So glad I finally picked up The Basement Tapes.  Incredible stuff.  I think "Million Dollar Bash" is my favourite track after just two listens.

And can never pick 1, but its always between

Blonde on Blonde
Desire
Blood on the Tracks

He doesnt have a bad album that Ive heard, but those 3 all have some of my favorites and are just so strong the whole way thru

"I married Isis on the 5th day of May
But I could not hold on to her, very long
So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away
For the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong"

1.Of.My.Favorite.Opening.Verses.Ever.

[bold99]

if I had to pick....Blood On The Tracks.

[Ruckus]

1.  John Wesley Harding
2.  Blood on the Tracks

[Leontheslut]

This is a tough choice for me. I love all his albums in different ways.

From beginning to end Nashville Skyline is incredible. There isn't one bad song on there! Of course you could say the same for Blood on the Tracks and Desire as well.

Then you have to look at albums like Blonde on Blonde which produced a slew of classic songs. Again, you could also make that same case for Highway 61 and Bringing it All Back Home.

I think for my personal favorite I have to look at the album that I have probably listened to most...

Street Legal.

I know I will get bashed for this because "he's ripping off Marley" or "his emotion sounds faked (as I have read in three different articles)". I'm not saying it's his best work, but it's probably my favorite.
