The best Dylan song, "Idiot Wind". Check out the live version from the live album "Hard Rain", recorded in '76. My favorite Dylan album. Check out also, "Love and Theft" a recent release..
I used to have a room mate who thought "Blood on the Tracks" was Dylan's best album. I argued for "Desire," and it made for many good-natured debates.
He played "Idiot Wind" over and over. Great song. Great album.
Shelter from the Storm. just reading it gives you chills. The only other writer from that era that was as good was Leonard Cohen.
Yeah, Idiot Wind is a favorite. and I listen a lot to Love and Theft, it is a good one. Still mostly listen to the old stuff. something about it re-anchors me when I've been knocked off my game, ya know? lol
