In pure terms of the quality of recording output it's Dylan overall but not by a huge margin. With respect to musical influence, innovation and impact on poular culture there's really no comparison.

I used to think this as well. Musically, they are an interesting lot and do go toe to toe well together. If they were getting started today, nobody would have ever heard of them. They'd be like Jeffery Lewis. That says more about our time than their talent... they are unquestionably some of the greatest artists of the 20th century.

Having said that I voted for Dylan since he's the only one with an album in my top 100.

I do enjoy Decade from cover to cover though... some of it A LOT and some of it... eh.

Oh wait... I think I have Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young in my top 100... meh... still Dylan.

But it really is a toss up. And possibly more so for me because I am not a vested fan in either one, but definitely a sideshow fan (whatever that means).

I think Neil Young is more consistent and has a greater amount of quality albums and songs, but Dylan's best is better. Young has more direct influence on a lot of other artists whose work I like. Here are my 7+'s from them (a rating on Young's Psychedelic Pill is pending).

1. Blonde On Blonde
2. Highway 61 Revisited
3. Tonight's The Night
4. Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere
5. Rust Never Sleeps
6) On The Beach
7. After The Gold Rush
8. Desire
??? 9. Arc

Dylan, though by no means is it a cakewalk. Young is one of the few artists that can pretty much go toe to toe with him.

I'm beggining to get into Neil. Some of his stuff is truly wonderful. That being said I don't think he comes close enough for me to even consider voting for him.

My vote went to Neil by a whisker. Both are legends.

That is a valid point. Neil Young live is an impressive act, Dylan live is a depressing one.

Thirded. Although Dylan can play a fairly mean electric guitar nowadays, but not like Neil. OK. Neil wins in the live department.

America wins again!!

And for anyone who says Dylan has never had a good voice has never heard this. There was a time when his voice could be goosebump inducing...in a good way

With that said I think Neil is underrated when you consider the amount of worship Dylan gets. He has a lot of songs that are as good as anything Dylan did.

Yeah. Bob's vocie used to fit his songs perfectly but now he's like Tom Waits but without any energy.

All you have to do is to listen to "Highway 61 Revisited", "Blonde on Blonde", "Bringing It All Back Home" and "Blood On the Tracks" and then you'll be able to see which one is better. Bob Dylan is winning......obviously...... :P

Yep done all that and still voted for Neil Young because I think he is just plain better. He is not just more my style, he has more style! 🤣 😎

I have always thought of Dylan as a bit of a one trick pony, ok stuff but nothing that knocks me off my feet...

And LIVE well Neil Young Kicks Arse! and Bob Dylan almost sent me to sleep! :?

Wait, do you really think Neil Young has ever done a song as great as this?

There it is look - the one trick! 😉

To answer your question! Shit YES! Do you want a list?
