Per iTunes, BS 8 is my most played Dylan album. However, I tend to do most of my listening in the car, where Blood On the Tracks is almost never out of rotation.

I'm going through a gospel era period at the moment so Saved and a bootleg from one of the Montreal shows.
Also listening to Knocked out Loaded quite frequently as well.

I had a long period of listening to Desire and Street Legal a couple of months back.

Over my life so far, I believe I have listened to Blonde on Blonde more that any album by any artist.

Masterpieces. It is an Austrian compilation album i picked up on ebay cheaply. Originally released in 1978, it contains some of his finest music to that date. Also some live tracks, some alternative versions and b sides.

I find it a good introduction to his music for those willing to give it a listen. I was working as a school bus driver for the past few months and thought it would be a nice idea to play it on the ride for the kids. Unfortunately, they hated it and I ended up using it as a threat to get them to behave. ie "Shutup and sit down back there or I'll put that Bob Dylan cd you like so much on again. Do you hear me?!!" It worked most of the time. But i have since got a new job working for a cutlery company.

I probably play Dylan's self-titled first album, Bob Dylan, the most (and have pretty consistently done so for the last 20 years). Man, I love the guitar playing on that album... and the singing... and the harmonica playing!

Freewheelin' has been getting a lot of plays recently. Bob Dylan's Dream is my favourite. Beautiful masterpiece of a song, I can relate to this song a lot.

Haha seriously? :lol: That's cool I don't really mind it too much myself!

I'd say mine is Highway 61 Revisited. It was the first Dylan album I ever listened to and I still remember that day. Listening to Desolation Row, feeling like it was never going to end, just completely fascinated. No other Dylan record has ever topped it for me, though many have come close!

Since Time Out of Mind was my first Dylan album, it technically gets first place.

But the album I listen to most frequently (i.e. every week or every couple weeks?) has to be Blood On The Tracks. Especially after I got a vinyl of it.

Matter of fact - think I'll turn it on right now.

Bootleg Series Vol. 5 has to be the most played out of his official catalogue.

If we're talking studio albums though, Desire and Blood on the Tracks are probably very close to each other and they lead the pack.

Love and Theft overall.The whole spread is there.'Street Legal' a lot when the remix came out. Still one of my favs.'John WH' is a trusted friend sitting next to me. Blonde on Blonde in the past but has less and less appeal now.
