 44 years of brilliance June 10, 2008
For the uninitiated this is a great starting point, 51 tracks spread over 44 years showing a master lyricist at work. 90% of the selections are perfect and couldn't possibly have been left off but there are certainly some ommisions. Why only one track from Highway 61 revisited - even if that one track is Bob's best moment, Like a rolling stone. Surely Desolation Row should have featured and Ballad of a thin man. Three tracks from Oh Mercy is one or two too many and they're not even the best tracks. Brownsville Girl is a dodgy choice. Two other big ommisions are Mr Bojangles and Every grain of sand. And the choice of tracks from 'Modern Times' is poor with two of the weaker tracks making it - why no 'Working man's blues or Ain't talkin'. I suppose all Bob fans have there own favourites and making a compilation of the most prolific artist of the last 50 years is a tough ask.
 Great & everything,but... May 11, 2008

For me,the problem with attempting to stick to *only* 3 discs for a Dylan compilation is that the less popular/well known dylan eras (in other words most of the post-accident stuff) is that the SAME songs always get picked-All Along The Watchtower, Lay Lady Lay, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, Forever Young, Hurricane, Changing Of The Guard, Gotta Serve Somebody...
Which,IMO,sells Dylan short somewhat. Kudos to compilers for picking Dark Eyes though(THE song from Empire Burlesque-not saying much admittedly).Needless to say,everything here is absolutely great,and anyone looking for a way in should look no further.

An excellent overview of Dylan's impressive career, with each disc covering, more or less, its distinctive phases. Most of the well known, early to mid-sixties, songs are on disc one, but there's plenty worth investigating in the later material on disc three. (And, DJ, 'Jokerman' is included - track 15 on disc 2!). While the remastering is a little murky in places (why do record companies try to make CDs sound like vinyl? They're not!), this is a great selection from one of the most iconic performers ever, at a very reasonable price.
Dylan 3 cd February 5, 2008

This 3 disc Dylan cd set seems like a final greatest hits and it really is staggering in it's content. Having bought No direction home which has a lot of live and home recorded songs I find the Dylan 3 cd offering complementary.
Includes his early acoustic folk songs from the 1962 self-titled album with Song to Woody and the acoustic blockbusters from the Freewheelin' Bob Dylan and the Times they are a changin' albums through to his later hits. Immense in the scale of his catalogue worth buying.

OK so you're not gonna get those happy joy-joy feelings when listening to Bob Dylan, in fact to the untrained ear, listening too often may bring on serious bouts of depression. Cos well, bless him he's just not the happy go-lucky type is he? 8 -)
What you get though is a musical journey of a sheer genius at work, it is particularly poignant to note that most of Dylan's more political views are relevant even forty years (or so) later.
Dylan writes of life with a unique openness that gives new meaning to the phrase "wearing his heart on his sleeve". Dylan is one of the most prolific songwriters to have ever been born. Anyone who is anyone in the rock world has covered a Dylan song. I would have liked a few inclusions, and in particular I was always fond of "Jokerman" from 'Infidels', but it must be a nightmare task trying to funnel down tracks for such a reputable compilation as this.
If you're new to Dylan (what planet have you been on?) This is the place to start, I always think that any serious music connoisseur should have three maybe four Dylan albums in their collection at least. Familiarise yourself with his work here, but I suggest getting hold of his studio albums and hear the man at his raw best. Like most longstay artists he has made a duff one or two, but in general Dylan is king and is granddaddy to every other rock artist you hear today!
Excellent!!!
