Summary: It's Dylan... what can I say?
Comment: He's an American icon, phenomenal songwriter, and from Minnesota! Great combination! I'm a voice teacher, and he certainly is not a good singer, but his style and interpretation make up for what he lacks in bel canto style!

Summary: Radio Hits with a Stunning New Song
Comment: This record came out after Bob Dylan's motorcycle accident. Colombia was undoubtedly trying to capitalize on Dylan's growing fame. They didn't have the man himself to make a new record, so they put this out and a fine job they did. Back then, somebody at Colombia really cared about how Dylan was presented to the public. From Roland Scherman's gorgeous cover photo to the inclusion of Milton Glasier's psychedelic poster of Dylan, this package is first rate and the material is first rate too. All of the songs were recognized by Dylan's fans as important and most were radio hits. However, the stunning "Positively 4th Street" which was recorded during the Highway 61 sessions was new and Dylan's fans loved it, probably because it sounded so much like "Like a Rolling Stone" and that's probably why it was left off of the record. Anyway, it was out now and helped make this one of Bob Dylan's all time best selling records.

Summary: That Grammy-Winning Cover
Comment: There's a story about that image, which won a Grammy as the best album cover, 1967: it is documented in Tracy Johnson's book, "If You See Him Say Hello". (Humble Press).
The picture that made the cover, which has emerged as one of the graphic icons of the 60's, is available as a poster-size photograph, signed and numbered, at the Morrison Hotel Gallery, both online and in Soho, NYC, and La Jolla CA. Check it out. A Great gift for the hardcore Dylan fan.

Summary: Great hits, not greatest
Comment: CD okay. Like BOB? Get "No Direction Home" double disc. It is great. Young Bob Dylan that is not yet commercilaized.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Bob's biggest
Comment: There's just 10 tracks on here, so of course it doesn't exhaust Bob's body of work. But the 10 that are here are all good, Bob's most recognzied and beloved stuff. An excellent quick shot of Dylan. Definitely worth having.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Then a holding action while Dylan unloaded his head after his May 1966 motorcycle crash, now a nostalgia merit badge for boomers and a course in Dylan 101 for '90s newcomers, Greatest Hits stands up remarkably well as a listening experience. Smartly programmed to ride all over any residual worries about acoustic-vs.-electric authenticity--in fact, blowing a raspberry in their face by opening with the Salvation-Army-band blast of "Rainy Day Women #12 and 35"--this best-of stacks AM smashes and protest anthems together in celebration of a pop star like no other before. --Rickey Wright
