Great review, Mr. P!

A long time Dylan fan, he never ceases to amaze me. Although cliche, "Like a Rolling Stone" is a masterpiece that I never tire to hear. The sonic quality of the remastered SACD version is superb & highly recommended although now out of print. The lyrics are very personal to me and perhaps why I hold the song in such high reverence.

In addition to "LaRS", "All Along The Watchtower" (Hendrix version although dave mason does a great cover) and "To Make You Feel My Love" covered by Trisha Yearwood (in movie "Hope Floats") round out my all time top 3 Dylan songs...but so easy to name 3 others.

So many classic songs over so many years, decades actually. Dylan truly is the best at what he has done.

He’s really the ONLY one to have done what he’s done. A stellar folkie protest singer creating all time classics. A surreal rock and roll game changer creating all time classics. A country folk late sixties troubadour creating all time classics. An incomparable 70s singer songwriter creating all time classics. A Bible thumping Christian convert creating all time classics. And now a grizzled bluesman creating all time classics. Not a bad career.
