There's Dylan and then there's everyone else. What I find most inspiring about Dylan is that even 40 years into his career he's still making brilliant music.

Music Genre: Alternative, Indie, Rock, Singer/Songwriter, New

Hands down, the best band in America. "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" is one of the best CD's of the last couple of years. Their other work is great as well. "AM," "A Ghost Is Born," "Being There," "Kicking Television," "Summer Teeth," "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot". I highly recommend the DVD, "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" as well. It follows the band, during and after the recording of "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot", "Sky Blue Sky."
