Slow Train Coming (Reis)

No Direction Home: The Soundtrack (The Bootleg Series Vol. 7)

Bob Dylan has produced a mountain or two's worth of great songs both for himself and the many artists who have covered his songs. Here's 100 great songs- most written by Dylan. He just knows how to write great songs.
