Favorite Dylan?


I'm loving Slow Train Coming on vinyl.  It's always been one of my favorites.  Mark Knopfler's guitar work is a treat, and the songs are great.  I know for some it was a turn off because of the born again phase, but if you can put that aside you cannot deny the brilliance of this record.

Runner up is Time Out Of Mind.  Magical....

I just bought Triplicate and all I can say is, Wow!  
I have never been a Sinatra fan but after hearing this collection I want to explore his works.  
As a side note, I am from Minnesota.  In Minnesota Prince is worshipped and adored more than any other Minnesota artist.  While I appreciate Prince, I really don't think he holds a candle to Bob Dylan's catalog of work.  Both men are genius, but Bob is the true Minnesota music legend.  Not that there needs to be only one, but I think a lot of people here overlook his brilliance because he has never achieved mainstream pop status (not that he has ever strived for this).  I'm sorry to say that most people won't realize this until after he is dead. Reading the comments on this thread makes me happy.  Thanks for sharing your faves!
Does anyone else just love New Morning?
Ever since "The Man In Me" was featured in The Big Lebowski I fell in love with this record.
It has a certain mood to it that is irresistible.
Based on your recommendations I picked up Desire a while back.  
It's taken a while to grow on me, but I agree it's great.  His songs with Emmylou are the sweetest IMO.  Nice mellow vibe.
