In my opinion this is Bob Dylan's best. If you prefer Dylan's early pre-electric material then perhaps you will agree. I don't even like "Blowin' in the Wind" or "Masters of War" but all the other songs on this disc are excellent, and more than make up for the ones I'm not in to. I absolutely love the mildly sarcastic and jaded style of humor that he displays so well in "Talkin' World War III Blues." Other songs like "Girl from the North Country," are just nice to listen to, and not surprisingly have been widely covered by artists ranging from Altan to Rod Stewart. This CD is also my favorite Dylan because of the wild and sometimes rythmic sounds he pulls and pushes from his harmonica so sporadically. It's something you can listen to over and over again and still appreciate. Highly recommended to folk and Dylan fans.
