How 50 years Flies By--Listening To The Best of The Cutting Edge--Bob Dylan's Bootleg Series 12

++The Bootleg Series covers uptakes from Bob Dylan's three albums from January 1965 and February 1966.  The albums were "Bringing It All Back Home", "Highway 61 Revisited" and "Blonde on Blonde". They may have been the most creative in Dylan's entire oeuvre. The fact they have lingered in my brain since my teenage years is a testament to their influence--at least on me.

++Everyone has their favorites. Mine are "Desolation Row", "Tombstone Blues", "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" and "Visions of Johanna". 

++Worth a listen and a reminder of the towering achievements of Bob Dylan. It is no mistake he was nominated for the Nobel Prize for Literature.
