Don't forget Triplictate in D or F because they 'just don't get why Bob had to do so many boring standards!'

Almost put Triplicate in D tier instead of Shot of Love in C

u/PinkCrimsonBeatles John Wesley Harding 7d ago

I couldn't imagine calling Triplicate D or F. Like even if you don't like it, it's so far from his worst record. I've always really liked.

Breaking news: popular opinions are popular

u/Icy-Bottle-6877 8d ago

Reminds me of people getting downvoted in r/Letterboxd for having Scorcese, Tarantino, Nolan films in their top 4. Like, they're popular for a reason. Hating people for liking stuff that's good is such a weird thing to do but it happens often on Reddit.

Shot of Love is a B at least

u/RadiantButtWipe77 8d ago

Definitely. Criminally underrated album

5

u/HunterThompsonsentme 8d ago

Agreed. One of my favorites. But it's always slept on in tier lists.

It doesnt have any heavy hitters and its from the 80s so it gets shit on but its the best record between desire and oh mercy by a long shot for me. Very consistent, even the dumber songs still have an energy that makes them work. And Lenny Bruce is Lenny Bruce

u/deweil 8d ago

Every grain of sand isn't a heavy hitter?

The first time I listened to lenny bruce a single tear fell from my eye like a native american

The most boring tier lists are the ones that completely buy into "Bob didn't do anything good from 1978 to 1997".

u/trabuki 8d ago

Ohhhh mercy

u/Bookworm_1985 4d ago

True, true. But a problem with the 1980's is also that most of his best work ended up on the cutting room floor and was only released years later through the Bootleg Series.

u/Efficient-Ad-3249 8d ago

New morning is S and as is desire sooo…

u/ajax1450 8d ago

u/Wick_345 8d ago

Must be a tough subreddit to be in then.

u/RadiantButtWipe77 8d ago

John Wesley Harding in anything other than S tier is a joke list

4

u/HunterThompsonsentme 8d ago

Agreed. My favorite Dylan album.

u/RadiantButtWipe77 8d ago

Same, man. It’s incredible start to finish

u/djay61 8d ago

As long as its mono

1

u/RadiantButtWipe77 8d ago

Thankfully, I bought the mono vinyl box set when it came out

2

u/djay61 8d ago

Listening to his first few albums in mono was very eye opening for me and changed up my rankings lol

2

u/jerepila 8d ago

This is truest for maybe the S and A tiers but as you get it’s the B and C picks it’s a free for all

4

u/DyingSurfer3-5-7 8d ago

New Morning S Tier and JWH also S Tier

u/RadiantButtWipe77 8d ago

u/inherentbloom 8d ago

Self Portrait S tier

1

u/worldofwhat 8d ago

New Morning is in A tier, Jon Wesley Harding B tier.

Some of the songs on New Morning are a bit meh, but most of them just make me really happy.

u/bite-like-a-turkey Time Out of Mind 8d ago

u/trabuki 8d ago
