Paste Magazine's 50 Best Dylan Covers:

We chose only one song from each of the artists, though some are mentioned multiple times in the alternate takes. We disqualified any songs that were duets with Dylan, but we didn't limit it to official releases or studio versions. There are several rumored songs we wish we could have heard and considered (like Gillian Welch and David Rawling's "Idiot Wind"), and I'm sure there are songs you love that we just didn't know about.

Huh. I never imagined he and Dylan were contemporaries. The story sounds like something out of the 1800s. Good riddance anyway.

Saw Dylan and the Band do a version of the Rolling Thunder Review concert at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto. The air was so thick with smoke you could hardly see the stage. If you weren't inhaling you weren't breathing.

The music was amazing, the people more so.

Of course we were spoiled in Toronto. Ronnie Hawkins trained and played with some great groups, including The Band. Dylan came up to see them a couple of times and the rest is, as they say, history.

Me too. I still remember a freshman in my high school telling me - a music loving sophomore - about this guy Dylan and me starting with Before the Flood and listening to It's Alright Ma and the scales fell from my eyes...

When I was in jr. high my english teacher would take us to the school library once a week and I would check out a record player and headphones so I could listen to Dylan. The other kids in the class would ask, How come he gets to listen to music, why can't I check out a record player? The teacher would tell them, "because he is listening to Dylan." 

Thank you Miss. Mensch

 
Ha ha, I once actually bunked school with my teacher to go see Dylan play at St James' park In Newcastle. No one ever did find out

Oh heck, why not. I've got a little glory scattered here and there after all...

What can I say, except that I was there,6 weeks before turning 23. I'm old enough now to almost not believe some of my own memories, and have to pull this stuff out of the archives to prove it to myself.







My view of the crowd, stage was to the SW of my viewfinder...

Or the brilliant double live Before the Flood with The Band as backup where he comes close but doesn't quite succeed in reclaiming All Along the Watchtower back from Hendrix.

I wouldn't recommend any greatest hits compilations because once you get bit you'll want to hear it all & you'll be missing out on hidden gems such as Man In A Long Black Coat to name but one of dozens. Be patient & start your collection album by album is my suggestion.
I agree about the compilations except for one - Biograph is excellent and is a great starting set for someone just getting into Dylan.

My first concert experience was Dylan and The Band in 1874. it was the tour that became the Before The Flood album.

I'm not so sure he always meant that....

And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead

Surely it is available on CD?

Highway 61 Revisited was the first Dylan vinyl that I purchased. Loved it then and still do.

(Yeah, if you're owld you can remember buying vinyl. )
 
Yes it is & thank the gods for that since I've probably replaced my LP about 5 or 6 times through honest wear....on  a Rega III turn-table (which I still have).....with Boothroyd Stuart Meridian Pre- & Power amps & Infinity RS 6000 speakers.

YES ! Blistering social commentry as relevant today as ever. My all time favorite Dylan

While one who sings with his tongue on fire
Gargles in the rat race choir
Bent out of shape from society's pliers
Cares not to come up any higher
But rather get you down in the hole
That he's in.
