Name all the Dylan albums in 7 minutes quiz: https://www.needsomefun.net/can-you-nam ... 7-minutes/

I actually blanked on the '88 release. Probably some sort of trauma response.

I got 30 of 39 - struggled with his 80's and 90's output.

I think I'd have to say … The Best of Bob Dylan.

If I had a list to choose from Id probably do ok, but off the top of my head?? Im drawing a blank right now. I dont dislike him but would have a hard time other than say Blood on the Tracks.

Yeah, off the top of my head, here's what I can do:
Blood on the Tracks (I would have gotten that one anyway)
Empire Burlesque
Nashville Skyline
Time Out of Mind
John Wesley Harding
Blonde on Blonde
Bringing It All Back Home
Highway 61 Revisited
The Basement Sessions (does that count?)

Yeah, that's all I can do. I know seeing a list would jar my memory some, but probably not more than five additional ones.

Pretty fun (and amusing) interview with a singer who was on Bob's Christmas in the Heart as he describes recording with Dylan: https://www.flaggingdown.com/p/inside-t ... -the-heart

Two things about this song. One is that it reminds me of my last major depression (pharmaceutically induced, brought on by a bad reaction to epilepsy medication), when I listened to this song a lot (that and Lennon's "God"). Second, I hear this and think that it seems quite suited to Dylan's voice and style—that is, I can hear him covering it in my head.
