Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: 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

Just wanted to hear and dub a few songs from disc. Brings me back to the younger day's. Great driving music.

It isn't definitive. Not by a long shot. I mean, it only covers the early phase of Dylan's career, starting with a cut from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (1963) and ending with a selection from Blonde On Blonde (1966). And even then, it hardly tells the full story: Bob Dylan's early days were as tumultuous and groundbreaking as anything else in the history of popular music, a heady period which saw him evolve from an idealistic young folk troubadour to rock `n' roll's cynical poet laureate. Dylan was discovering his voice and developing his genius all the while, in the process creating some of the greatest music ever. A measly ten-song tracklisting doesn't even scratch the surface. Twenty wouldn't come close. No collection of mid 60s Dylan is complete ... Read More:

I never defend greatest hits albums, because when it comes to "album bands" or legendary artists, the idea is to collect all their regular studio and live albums, and leave the hit packages in the back of the store shelves where they belong.
However, this is a major exception. A shocking exception in fact, because while there's not a whole lot of music on this album, that doesn't even matter- this selection of classics from 60's Bob Dylan gathers all the main important hits, and puts them on one small, very affordable and EXTREMELY satisfying disc.
I say, AWESOME! I love every single one of these songs. It's a perfect way to start experiencing Bob Dylan's music.

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!

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 ... Read More:
