Listen to full tracks now. Users outside the UK can hear 30-second clips of each song.

While there may already be a vast number of Bob Dylan ‘Best Ofs’, this three-disc set is essential. From his early street poet days penning the stunning likes of ‘Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right’ and ‘It Ain’t Me Babe’ through to the race politics of ‘Hurricane’ and bluegrass shudder of ‘Everything Is Broken’, it sparkles from start to finish. Pure genius.

Dylan is great no matter what, but the BEST of Dylan is quintessential awesomeness. Even though I'm not a big fan of "The Best Of..." albums, I was seriously looking forward to this one.
