It don’t get much better. His voice sounds amazing, maybe the best it ever sounded. Last week half cut and a bit stoned I messaged a friend to demand that he play this at my funeral. :grinning:

I have one that’s pretty similar but a bit different, my mum got me it for Christmas a few years back. ‘Treasures of Bob Dylan’

Little posters and ticket stubs and setlists inside (or representations thereof)

Fun fact: I once had a “Bob Dylan Map of the US” which I got from Mojo or Q, with tidbits from Dylan songs which namechecked specific locations (“Brownsville Girl”, “Romance in Durango”, etc).

Oklahoma was the only mainland state which he had written absolutely nothing about.

Is this the place to say that most people are wrong and that Bob is a bloody astounding singer?

Cause that’s what I’m saying

HB BD! Tell you what, in the last year or so I’ve come to the conclusion that Street Legal is legit one of his very best albums and its closer, Where Are You Tonight?, one of his absolute finest songs. Nice one, Bob.

Senor (Tales of Yankee Power) is one his most under-appreciated songs i reckon.

Isn’t that generally seen as the song from Street Legal? It’s the only one I’d heard before hearing the album itself. Definitely great though. Feels like an album that carried some of the vibe from the Rolling Thunder tour in to the studio. Really don’t understand why it’s not seen seen as on a level with the albums immediately preceding it (Desire and BOTT).
