Revolver

 The Beatles

Most songs on Revolver have been favorites at one time or another. Currently, 'And Your Bird Can Sing', 'I Want To Tell You', 'Got To Get You Into My Life', and 'Tomorrow Never Knows are my faves. Well, 'Tomorrow Never Knows' has always been a favorite.(First added to this chart: 04/01/2017)

Magical Mystery Tour

 The Beatles

I don’t care if this album is a compilation of the of a 6-track movie soundtrack and five previously released singles. I still like it better than Sgt Pepper, which was released earlier in 1967. While Sgt Pepper may have been a cultural event, the songs haven’t aged as well as those on Magical Mystery Tour, at least to my ears. It doesn’t hurt that two of the singles included here are ‘Strawberry Fields Forever’, and ‘Penny Lane’, two of the Beatles’ best. The six soundtrack songs stand on their own though, with ‘Fool on the Hill’, ‘I Am The Walrus’ and the beautiful instrumental, ‘Flying’, being my current favorites. ‘Baby, You’re A Rich Man’, and ‘Flying’ are the most underrated tracks.(First added to this chart: 04/01/2017)

Chelsea Girl

 Nico

Still haunting...and not just the well known 'These Days' and 'Chelsea Girls'. 'I'll Keep It With Mine', a Bob Dylan outtake, is a current favorite.(First added to this chart: 04/01/2017)

Highway 61 Revisited

 Bob Dylan

It’s hard to believe this album was already 30-years old when I first heard it from start to finish in the mid-90s in some college dorm room. ‘Like A Rolling Stone’ was one of those songs you couldn’t help hearing on the radio growing up in the 80s and 90s, but the rest of the album was a complete revelation. ‘Queen Jane Approximately’, ‘Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues’, and ‘Desolation Row’ are my current favorite tracks.

Dylan and Grateful Dead, more than any other music would trigger wanderlust to explore America’s backroads, meeting eclectic characters along the way.(First added to this chart: 04/09/2017)
