There is only ONE BOB!!!!.......2007-03-11

There is nothing much to say about Bob Dylan. If Amazon had a 10 star rating. then I would give it some thought! Buy it!

A Good Overview of Bob Dylan's Career.......2007-03-05

Unlike other Bob Dylan compliations, (The single disc The Best Of Bob Dylan and the double disc The Essential Bob Dylan)This is a thorough collection of Dylan's best songs. Blowin In The Wind, The Times They Are A-Changin', Subterranean Homesick Blues, Maggie's Farm, Mr. Tambourine Man, Like A Rolling Stone, Positively Fourth Street, I Want You, Rainy Day Women #12 & 35, All Along The Watchtower, Lay Lady Lay, The Mighty Quinn, Knockin On Heaven's Door, Tangled Up In Blue, and Hurricane are all here. If you are into Dylan and want all of his good songs, get this.

So Many Songs to Choose From, How Did They Ever Decide?.......2006-04-03

I really like Bob Dylan's first Greatest Hits record. I love "Tambourine Man", love the subtle electric guitar. I adore "It Ain't Me Babe," it ain't no stinkin' love song. And neither is "Positively 4th Street." These are bitter and biting songs that grip like glue. "If you were standing in my shoes, you'd know what a drag it is to see you." What a line. Nobody writes them like Bob Dylan. "Rolling Stone", "Rainy Day Woman," and "I Want You," three jumpin' rockers. And then there is "Just Like a Woman," Lord I love that song that shows what a mesmerizing voice Dylan can have when he wants to. And, of course, I can't forget that song that is almost impossible to sing along with, " Subterranean Homesick Blues." Try memorizing the lyrics to that one, try singing them without the record playing. Was Dylan ahead of his time? You betcha.

There is a song on Dylan's second Greatest Hits record "Tomorrow is a Long Time," which is just about one of the best songs I've every heard. It's from a concert that, if all of the performances were delivered this well, then I don't know why they didn't release the whole show. Also I agree that it would have been nice to have a whole record of Bob Dylan and Happy Traum together. It also would have been nice to have a whole record produced by Leon Russell, because as we see with the two songs he produced on this record, "Watching" the River Flow" and "When I Paint My Masterpiece" Mr. Russell knew how to get a good rocker out of Mr. Dylan. Still, even though we don't have the records it would have been nice to have, we have snippets here of what they could have been. Several different styles, all good, but then Bob Dylan is always reinventing himself, but to reinvent himself a couple times on the same record, amazing, simply amazing.

Dylan's third Greatest Hits record is a masterpiece in it's own right. In fact because of the many different styles Dylan uses, it kind of reminds my of a Beatles' record. You know, how the Beatles would switch the lead singer from song to song between John, Paul, George and Ringo. I think because of that Beatles' records never get old. This record is like that. Dylan's voice is so different from song to song, the bands are different. It seems like a record full of surprises, one I know I'll never get tired of and I don't think you'll ever tire of it either.

There is Just Simply No Song Man Better than Bob Dylan.......2006-04-03

"Blowin' in the Wind" one of the three acoustic songs from his too short protest period on this record conjures up images of a young man, wind blowing his hair every which way as he sings this song protesting all wars. The rock numbers are outstanding and the inclusion of "Postively 4th Street" was inspirational, because not only is it a divine song, but it had never been on an LP up until the release of this record. In fact this whole record is kind of inspirational, good early material that will have anybody up and thinking, good electric songs that will make you think as you sing along. Just an all around good record, this is.

Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits II" opens with the up tempo rocker "Watching the River Flow," then slows down some with the acoustic "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right," then jumps into a great Dylan countryesqe love song, "Lay, Lady Lay," then onto "I'll Be Your Baby Tonight" from the "John Wesley Album." It is a testament to how strongly Bob Dylan presents his songs that he can take you from fast to slow, electric to acoustic and grab you instantly into each song. Dylan is a master, no doubt about it. Then again, all Mr. Dylan's songs are all good aren't they? And then there's the new stuff on here that wasn't really a greatest hit, though now that the record has been out for umpteen years, probably nobody knows that, but anyway, that stuff is a good too, no it's great.

"In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors, looking into the lost forgotten years for dignity." What a line, delivered the way only Dylan can deliver them. The years just roll on and he just keeps getting better. Like a shape changer he keeps changing, redefining himself, putting out new stuff, rereleasing his old stuff, putting out his live stuff and I am always amazed. When I first got "Greatest Hits III) (I bought it on cassette), I stuck it into the play in my car, because I couldn't wait to get home. "Tangled Up in Blue" came on and I immediately forgot that I was listening to a Greatest Hits record, was taking right back to the first time I'd heard "Blood on the Tracks" and I stayed right there till "Changing of the Guard" came on, not the song I was expecting, but I was immediately hooked right in. Then right onto "The Groom's Still Waiting at the Alter", a down right rocker with a heck of a Gospel flavor. Next comes "Hurricane" a song with a different band, different flavor and that is the genius of Bob Dylan. He can pull you in any direction he wants you to go and you follow.

This is Just Simply an Excellent Collection.......2006-04-03

"Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits" came out after a long lapse, probably because of Dylan's motorcycle accident. At least that's what I've read. Unlike a lot of hits records, this is a great stand alone record in it's own right and it flows as if all of the songs were meant for this record and this record alone. The three acoustic songs are absolutely three of his best. The record starts out as a rocker with "Rainy Day Woman," where we hear a humorous, seemingly carefree Dylan, but unlike on "Highway 61" here the song segues into just about the greatest protest song every written, "Blowing in the Wind." Two more acoustic songs, good ones, and then were rocking through the rest of the CD, slowing down only for "Mr. Tambourine Man." I love this record and often have the CD playing in my car.

"Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2" is a very interesting collection. The songs, though are all very good, just don't seem to flow as well (at least for me) as they do on "Greatest Hits, Volume 1." Sticking the acoustic, "Don't Think Twice" between the Rocking "Watching the River Flow" and "Lay, Lady Lay" just someone seems not right. I would have grouped the three early acoustic songs together along with the very excellent "Tomorrow is a Long Time" a live song that until this record came out, had been unreleased. It is such a good song and maybe should have been grouped with its brothers. All that being said, this is a very good collection with some outstanding songs you're just gonna love and even with my problem with the grouping, I still have to give this record five stars.

"Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits, Vol. 3" starts out with the hard driving "Tangled Up in Blue," moves into "Changing of the Guards", the best song, in my opinion, from the underrated "Street Legal" album. "The Groom is Still Waiting at the Alter" was originally released as a single and later turned up in the "Biograph Box", and then the disc dives into "Hurricane" from "Desire." Like the first "Greatest Hits" LP, this CD stands on its own. All of the songs seem to work well together. There are no pre-electric songs, but this stuff is a long time away from that earlier period so, I guess, I shouldn't have been surprised when the CD came out, but I would have liked to see "Girl from the North Country" or maybe "To Ramona." I think, despite the fact that they were recorded earlier, that they would have fit right in with this five star collection. Still, it is a Greatest hits record and those songs were not hits. But then Dylan is famous for sticking stuff on these hits records that his audience has never heard before, like "Dignity" and "Series of Dreams" on this record.

Great Collection.......2006-11-10

This is a great collection of Bob Dylan's work. There's no way that they could put all of the songs you need from Dylan on one disc but they did there best to include everything. If you get this with the other volumes of greatest hits you are well on your way to having an awesome set.

an awesome album.......2006-08-28

i guess bob was tired od the critics and decided to remind them how good he is and so we got greatest hits vol 3.the opener is "tangled up in blue".it goes on and on about what im not sure,but musicly its sound."changing of the guards" goes on and on but with no stick.onto the rocking "the grooms still waiting at the alter".he says a line i think is funny on this one."she could be respectfully married or running a wh%re house in buenis aries".lol.then "hurricane",a true story about a frame job on a black guy.then the very touching "forever young".its one of my top 5 fave dylan tunes.since we are on the subject of greatest hits...heres my top 5....not in order......[mr tambourine man,forever young,blowin in the wind,standing in the doorway and all i really want to do].anyhow,the epic "jokerman" spins next.its wonferful.theres a couple so so songs called "dignity" and "sergio".dignity at least was trancendendant but segio just wasnt all that."ring them bells" is a listenable church song full of inspiration."gotta serve somebody" was rather redundant."series of dreams" was just weird."brownsville girl" is another one of those good but long songs rgar doesnt really seem to be going anywhere."under the red sky"was ok i guess.lastly there was "knocking on heavens door".this song was great but tragicly short and not even axl roses singing the chorus over and over a billion times changes that.a great album.if you count every live,best of and studio album,itd only be topped by greatest hits 1 and 2,bringing it all back home and blonde on blonde.

ANOTHER LOOK FROM BOB .......2006-06-27

THIS IS MAINLY A COMPILATION OF WORK FROM VARIOUS PERIODS THAT DID NOT MEET SUCCESS WITH DYLAN'S TRADITIONAL FOLK AND FOLK ROCK AUDIENCES AND WAS REISSUED AFTER HIS REEMERGENCE AS AN ICON IN THE EARLY 1990'S. I PLAN TO DO A LONGER REVIEW OF DYLAN'S EARLY WORKS WHICH I AM BOTH MORE FAMILIAR WITH AND WHICH HAD MORE OF AN EFFECT ON MY GENERATION OF '68. THAT SAID, THERE ARE SOME GOOD SONGS HERE SUCH AS GOTTA SERVE SOMEONE AND BROWNSVILLE GIRL. FOREVER YOUNG HAS TAKEN ITS PLACE AS THE CLASSIC OF BABY-BOOMERS (INCLUDING THIS WRITER)TRYING TO STAVE OFF OLD (OR IS IT MIDDLE) AGE. DIGNITY STANDS OUT AS A SENSITIVE WORK CALLING TO OUR ATTENTION HOW VERY LITTLE DIGNITY THIS SOCIETY AFFORDS MOST PEOPLE. ENOUGH SAID.
