I consider each one of the above albums an absolute masterpiece and pivotal to the history of rock music. Bob Dylan is a genius.
Great list! Your top ten is very similar to my list of 10 Great Bob Dylan CDs. Realizing that I wasn't including live albums, our top five are the same albums, and our top three are even in the same order!
Wow!
Welcome to Listology!
Shalom, y'all!

Yes, our lists are nearly the same. I still need to read the rest of your lists, but I've enjoyed (and sometimes even agreed with!) the ones I've read so far.
I agree with the choices here, if not the order (I'm a partisan lover of Bringing It All Back Home). However, I humbly think Desire, one of Dylan's most underrated albums, deserves a place here.

Thank you, Mr. Waco. Desire would most likely be my number eleven choice. It is underrated, but Dylan simply has so many great albums. Maybe a top twenty list would be more appropriate.
My list would probably be very similar to yours, though I think that The times they are a-changin' would replace Another side of, and i would swap Nashville skyline around with John Wesley Harding. I may also put Bringing it all back home a couple of places higher.
It would be interesting to know your top 10 dylan songs.
Best wishes,
