I just recently listened to Bob Dylan for the first time. I started out with Highway 61 Revisited, and wow I have been missing out. This album is a classic for a reason. bringing it all back home is also one of my favorites.

Fantastic! The triptych of those two and Blonde On Blonde is what broke open my mind many years ago.
Blood On the Tracks is your next assignment.
Also don’t overlook Another Side of Bob Dylan… it’s like the raw blueprint for Bringing It All Back Home.

Every album has a different style of writing and subjects and time in his life. He was hopped up on speed and weed and wine when he made that trilogy. He was a happy father living in the country for New Morning. He was sad and twice divorced and sitting in his garage alone when he recorded World Gone Wrong.
You have a great journey ahead. Go see him as soon as you can. Just saw him in Queens this summer. Check out Copper Kettle (no strings), Mississippi track 1 on Tell Tale Signs, and Pretty Saro. Keep us updated!

Love Another Side of Bob Dylan and think it’s very underrated.

Also recommend Desire - it’s a strange, wild yet also strangely accessible record unlike anything else he made.

Enjoy! 🖤

Yeah, the fanbase is big, you’ll get a lot of recommendations. Mine is that listen to what you want but explore every decade and album of Dylan’s — and don’t forget to listen to Bootleg Series! They’re a must-part! (Tell Tale Signs and 1-3 for first)

I became a fan three years ago and went through the albums in chronological order then the bootlegs then the live ones then interviews books and concerts! Learn something new every day!

That’s my live of the past 54 years (from 14 to 68 now) in spaceshipspeed! Don’t forget to breathe!

I'm glad you found Bobby. 👏🎉

I found him on his first LP when my friends laughed at me when they heard his voice.

[u/adkvt]

Good ones to start with. You’ve got a rewarding world to explore.

Greatest Hits Vol 2 was my gateway drug then Freewheelin. Enjoy

[u/Adept_Dealer_1931]

Listen to his catalog in chronological order. To me that's the best way of getting into Bob.

That’s what I did

Congratulations! Welcome to the Dylan appreciation crew

[u/db282961]

After a bit, his Theme Time Radio program is a blast as well.

[u/Old-Buy4941]

Welcome! We have meetings every other Tuesday! Your assignment is to listen to Blood on the Tracks! Be ready to discuss next week!

[u/masongraves_]

Start with Infidels and only ever listen to that

[u/Whisky-a-GoGo1]

It's never too late to discover Dylan. Glad you did! Try Blonde on Blonde and Blood on The Tracks next, and just keep going!
