No I think we agree on this. I was basically trying to say that it's impossible to pick a fave, as stylistically there's so much to choose from. His period with The Band is my favorite, Robbie Robertson being another of my faves. As a Canadian I value his contribution, which is WAY underrated.

I can't help but think that on those few tracks such a Lay Lady Lay he was "putting on" a different voice. Steven Tyler did this on the first Aerosmith album. It happens to alot of singers.

As far as not recognizing his importance, that's laughable. Love him or hate him, only a fool would deny his significance to modern music. He influenced just about every important artist including the middle finger bearing Johnny Cash who was a HUGE fan. The Beatles would not have had the lyrical licence were it not for Dylan to etch out a path. His timing and melody were simply never heard before.
