Review: Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits - Great compilation of Dylan's greatest hits from 1962-1966. Comes with a replica of the original 1967 poster. My copy did not include a digital download card, however. I wanted to replace my older vinyl record copy I had that was beat up. This is a nice flat quiet pressing and replicates the original Columbia Records 2-eye Stereo Logo on the record label. Great album for Bob Dylan's fans or even has a starting point for Bob Dylan's early music.
Review: 2012 Gold CD review: worth it for the sound - I am a huge Dylan fan but this collection has never been a personal favourite; while each and every song here is a classic, I generally prefer to hear them in context on the albums from which they come. I still placed this CD on pre-order though, having heard what mastering engineer Steve Hoffman did with Highway 61 Revisited on DCC; he sought out the best master tape which was famously labelled "Do not use" and made a fantastic-sounding CD. Since then we have had the SACDs and various remasters and remixes from Sony, so do we need another remaster of these songs? In a description of the mastering work on his own form, Hoffman describes his approach. He avoided remixes and says: "We used all the tapes from that era, which means NO bass cut EQ'd cutting dubs, NO extra compression and NO lower treble screech that has been built into most every version of this album ever issued. We resisted the temptation to give every song a similar sonic signature, choosing instead to respect the tonality of each individual mix, not wishing to disturb the "energy" of the sound of each. Nothing sounds like anything else on the disk. This is intentional, a nod to the pioneering efforts of the original producers, engineers and artists. "We bypassed all GREATEST HITS dub reels and went back to the earliest surviving individual stereo mix reels for each original album the songs came from." In other words, a lot of effort went into finding the best sources. Judging by the sound, the effort paid of. The bass is rich, the vocals lifelike, the instrumental separation is as good as I have heard on these tracks. There is no harshness (unless you think that Dylan's harmonica *always* sounds harsh). That said, you need to be realistic. The Sony remasters (and sometimes remixes) done for the SACDs are generally not bad at all. On the Blonde on Blonde tracks, remixed for SACD, I found the gold CD richer but the SACD perhaps cleaner. On Subterranean Homesick Blues I found it hard to choose, the SACD wins on clarity, the gold CD sounds fuller and more natural. Like a Rolling Stone sounds great on the gold CD, from the opening crack of the drums to the swirling organ and snarling vocal. You do need to love Dylan and have a decent system to appreciate the differences. I guess since this is a gold CD at a premium price that few others would consider it anyway. If you *are* in the market for an excellent-sounding Dylan remaster that transports you straight back to the Sixties (but with better sound than was enjoyed back then) you will not be disappointed. Note: the initial release was limited to 5000 numbered copies; however the label has announced that they will be making more though the later issues will not be numbered.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Of Bob Dylan's Early Period
*by M***E on February 28, 2018*

The first compilation album by Bob Dylan is the best way to indulge on his best classics whether it's acoustic or electric. The lead off track here is the same as Blonde On Blonde-"Rainy Day Women #12 & 35", which is great for the party-goers. This is followed by three of Dylan's "folk" classics-"Blowin' In The Wind"; "The Times They Are A-Changin'" and "It Ain't Me, Babe". The crown-achieving "Like A Rolling Stone" is his greatest rock piece and the first song to break the two-minute barrier single-wise. The original acoustic "Mr. Tambourine Man" leads off the second half of this set before the Byrds electrified it and took it to the top as their maiden voyage single release and the title of their debut album from 1965 which was the same year Dylan himself went electric at the Newport Folk Festival with two albums under his belt such as Bringing It All Back Home and Highway 61 Revisited. Speaking of the former album, it not only gave us the song just mentioned but also "Subterranean Homesick Blues" patterned after the Chuck Berry song "Too Much Monkey Business" which also serves as a stepping stone for Rap enthusiasts[Just kidding]. The second of three Blonde On Blonde songs here is "I Want You" with that never-ending guitar hook played by Nashville pro Wayne Moss. The song here previously released as a single only "Positively 4th Street", the follow-up to "Rolling Stone". Closing this first Dylan compilation album is the third song from Blonde On Blonde[and closing half of the first record of rock's first double album], "Just Like A Woman". Yes, every song on this album is a classic and yet most of these songs have widely been interpreted by many artists and even actors, i.e. William Shatner and Sebastian Cabot, the latter of whom had an album full of Bob Dylan songs in dramatic reading fashion. You could get more songs from the same period on his second greatest hits collection plus songs from the late '60s and early '70s. If you want a basic collection, this one is highly recommended and there would be no place that you're going to.
