Bob Dylan’s Greatest Hits (1967).

Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II. Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II, also known as More Bob Dylan Greatest Hits, is the second compilation album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on November 17, 1971 by Columbia Records. With Dylan not expected to release any new material for an extended period of time, CBS Records president Clive Davis proposed issuing a double LP compilation of older material

Album · 1967 · 10 Songs. Released by his label as he recuperated from his notorious motorcycle accident, this best-of set marks the end of the first phase of Bob Dylan’s career, which saw him go from acoustic folk troubadour in 1963 to a rock ’n’ roll star with a loud backing band by 1966. The sociopolitical Blowin’ in the Wind sounds like back-porch folk next to the surrealist Mr. Tambourine Man, and both I Want You and Just Like a Woman show how quickly Dylan grew as an empathetic songwriter capable of giant hooks.

Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits. Rmst ed. Reissued, Remastered. BOB DYLAN'S GREATEST HITS ends with material from Dylan's 1966 double album BLONDE ON BLONDE and a single perfectly in step with the sound of HIGHWAY 61 and the double album masterpiece, "Positively 4th Street.

Undoubtedly, somebody up at Columbia thought that Bob Dylan’s Greatest Hits, Volume II ought to be in there competing with Bangla Desh for the Christmas dollar, and thus the set, complete with beautiful Bangla Desh color cover, was rush-released into the stores. Dylan, bless him, wasn’t so calculating, and took pains to include his own Christmas gift: five new songs - or, more accurately, five songs made somewhat famous by other artists but never before recorded by him - not found on older albums. Another Side of Bob Dylan was a moving and brilliant transitional album, perhaps the most personal work he’s ever done. He managed at least a draw or a TKO over the Beatles and the Stones with Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited, and Blonde on Blonde. John Wesley Harding was another fine transitional LP.

Dylan's recording from Blue Rock would only see release on Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. "Watching the River Flow" was issued as a single in June 1971, backed by "Spanish Is the Loving Tongue", which had been recorded during the New Morning sessions. Months later, Dylan would agree to release a second "greatest hits" compilation, provided he could compile it himself, issue it as a double album, and include several older compositions which he had written but never issued himself. To accommodate this last condition, Dylan took it upon himself to hold.
