Though Cold Irons Bound, Poor Boy, and Lonesome Day Blues come mighty close.

I actually prefer Dylan's later works (Blood On The Tracks forward) to his 1960s and early 1970s works. Many of his older songs sound a little tired to me.

The last three or four albums are the very best of his career in my opinion.

Amazingly, it appears that it is impossible for Dylan to put out a bad album. Even the "bootleg" series of recordings are first rate and as for the much maligned "Self Portrait" of 1970 - there is a lot to like about that recording as well.

I would vote 'Blood on the Tracks' as my personal favorite. Dylan has now been around so long that they may qualify as an "early" work, but certainly not "earliest".

While nothing beats them, some of today's works are just as good.
