"I first got into Dylan when I was in high school, right after his gospel albums came out. They are still my favorite albums he ever released."
They are certainly among my favorites too (and we must be the same age!) I think of all my Dylan albums, I probably wore out Time Out Of Mind the most, though. I thought it was so dark it was (almost) funny at points. Leonard Cohen has nothing on Bob, when Bob is bummed and thinking he's fixing to die.
I like that album too. I've been collecting live stuff for years...my favorite stuff of live is 1999-2001, Bob really was on top of his game, I have many UNBELIEVABLE blow your lid live cds from the TOOM era...dude, I'm not kidding here....
