Its a toughy with Dylan. I love his songs more when they're sung by someone else.

I bit left field, but I love Must Be Santa!

Again, not a big fan but I've probably got 5 or 6 albums. I can't stick his voice most of the time, good songwriter though, as evinced by the many great covers of his songs by other people. This is probably my favourite with him singing..

Tangled Up In Blue

I love Bryan Ferry's version of 'Hard Rains Gonna Fall', Nick Cave's cover of 'Wanted Man', The Byrds 'Tambourine Man', and Jimi's 'All Along The Watchtower'.

My favourite Bob Dylan track is not a Bob Dylan track even though for many years I'd presumed it was....

It's... "Catch the wind" by Donovan

Hurricane is a great song, tambourine man needs an honourable mention, but for me Blowing in the wind is his best

Yes, and how many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free?

Yes, and how many times can a man turn his head

And pretend that he just doesn't see?

The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind

The answer is blowin' in the wind

Blood on the Tracks is one of my favourite ever albums.

Shelter from the Storm and Simple Twist of Fate are particularly meaningful for me.

I also love Girl from the North Country and Mama You've Been on My Mind, as a springing to mind of favourite tracks. But really, I could happily listen to Dylan all day long. Oh and the At Budokan album is a great fun too.

Yes I know, but the cheapest are £60 (nearly £80 with beer & transport) and it's not the amount I would have been anticipating, much as I would have love to have seen him. Maybe a little planning next time might be in order so I can save a few pennies up

Have seen Queen with Freddie 3 times, the first was at Bingley Hall in Stafford back in '77. Saw them at Knebworth as well

Blind Willy McTell - the sheer passion in his voice is amazing alongside moving lyrics and haunting six string and piano combine to raise the hairs on your back (but not mine, waxed smooth always!)

I typically love his earlier stuff more but I also like hearing broken old men haunted by regret (see also Leonard Cohen and Johnny Cash) so Most of the Time and When the Deal goes Down really hit the spot.
