#4 Best Bob Dylan Albums- The Freewheelin'

Some may question my decisioni to put this ant #4 and not #2.  But you and I both know which three albums are next.  

Dylan's best album from his folk period, it contains classics such as Blowin' in the Wind, Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall, and Masters of War, as well as the original Girl from the North Country.  There are several Dylan-ised covers here, and they are good, but the sheer weight, influence, and skill of the folk originals make this possibly the best album of 1963, or perhaps the best folk album ever. -Ian, 5/5
