Bob Dylan’s first album is pretty damn good. I prefer his albums solely consisting of originals but there’s a lot of energy and charisma in those covers. It’s best heard in the original mono though.

To answer your question, pic related.

I'm in the minority, but I actually only enjoy his first album regularly. I don't care for his overly political and surrealist lyrics, or that he went electric, although I do enjoy John Wesley Harding.

Oh wow, a YouTube link never seen that here before!!!
>>
>>124048816
I only listen to things I've found on my own.
I don't care about opinions, beliefs or shit I've seen spammed a million times over throughout my life, like we don't already know about all this mainstream pop shit. Even non-music is better than unadventurous tourism.

Prior to the Beatles, the LP format was reserved for jazz and classical only. Pop, rock n roll, RnB were geared entirely toward single releases. “Albums” were rare, and were just a bunch of cover songs supported by a couple singles (also frequently covers) that were curated by labels with little input from the artist.

There was tons of great jazz and classical recorded before 1963 tho.
>>
>>124049459
There are plenty of great compilation LPs from before The Beatles, as well.
>>
>>124049459
Sometimes these covers were good but many were just phoned in.
>>
>>
Pop acts still also sometimes had standards collections or concept albums like this example which has an ace version of "Ballin' The Jack." I've heard some shitty versions of that one too.
>>

For example Fats Domino's version of that tune...ugh, don't. Then again if he'd recorded it in 1955 instead of '64 it might be decent.
>>
>>124039354
pretty terrible choice
if this album wasn't from Dylan nobody would know about it

Denny Doherty was a better sounding vocalist than Buddy Holly.

If not then what's the point?

You're worthless opinion could've been a genuine recommendation.
