Bob Dylan Albums Ranked From Worst to Best (Including Rough and Rowdy Ways)

He's one of the greatest and most important artists in the history of popular music. A monumental figure, and at 79 years old he's still releasing great records. This past week he released his 37th (by our count anyway) studio album, Rough and Rowdy Ways. It's a phenomenal album, but how does it rank among the rest of his discography.

In this episode of Listography, Jason and Kramzer rank Bob Dylan's studio albums from the worst to the best. From the early folk albums to his electrified folk rock, from Nashville country ramblings to 70's excess, from born again Christian rock to late-period exploration of Americana and roots music. There's a whole lot of ground to cover. Comparing all of these different eras of Dylan was no easy task, but it was a lot of fun!
