The Real McCoy Oct 19, 2008 What can I say except that the man is a genius. After listening to and enjoying the covers on the soundtrack of I'm Not There I was inspired to listen again to the original and was taken on a journey back to my youth.
Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Jul 31, 2008 Just wanted to hear and dub a few songs from disc. Brings me back to the younger day's. Great driving music.

Ten great reasons to become a Dylan fan Jun 21, 2008 It isn't definitive. Not by a long shot. I mean, it only covers the early phase of Dylan's career, starting with a cut from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (1963) and ending with a selection from Blonde On Blonde (1966). And even then, it hardly tells the full story: Bob Dylan's early days were as tumultuous and groundbreaking as anything else in the history of popular music, a heady period which saw him evolve from an idealistic young folk troubadour to rock `n' roll's cynical poet laureate. Dylan was discovering his voice and developing his genius all the while, in the process creating some of the greatest music ever. A measly ten-song tracklisting doesn't even scratch the surface. Twenty wouldn't come close. No collection of mid 60s Dylan is complete without "Tombstone Blues," "Masters Of War," "Visions Of Johanna," "Motorpsycho Nightmare," "Desolation Row," etc. The list goes on.
So why the high rating? Simple. The ten songs on this disc are among the greatest ever written or recorded. Buy this, and you'll like what you hear. And then you'll want more. And you'll discover one of history's greatest musicians in the process. Enjoy.

it really is the greatest May 20, 2008 I never defend greatest hits albums, because when it comes to "album bands" or legendary artists, the idea is to collect all their regular studio and live albums, and leave the hit packages in the back of the store shelves where they belong.
However, this is a major exception. A shocking exception in fact, because while there's not a whole lot of music on this album, that doesn't even matter- this selection of classics from 60's Bob Dylan gathers all the main important hits, and puts them on one small, very affordable and EXTREMELY satisfying disc.
I say, AWESOME! I love every single one of these songs. It's a perfect way to start experiencing Bob Dylan's music.

It's Dylan... what can I say? Apr 28, 2008 He's an American icon, phenomenal songwriter, and from Minnesota! Great combination! I'm a voice teacher, and he certainly is not a good singer, but his style and interpretation make up for what he lacks in bel canto style!
