Thanks in advance

My favorite of theirs (other than straight up Bob Dylan albums) is Before The Flood (it's a live Bob Dylan concert). Also, Music From Big Pink, The Band, and The Last Waltz. I haven't listened to any of there 90's stuff.

Wait, was Bob Dylan in The Band? Or what does he have to do with them?
I dont know much about them other than a greatest hits collection of theirs that I got a few years back. I like most of the songs, but it was never enough for me to explore their music much further.

Bob Dylan collaborated w/ The Band, I believe. I'm new to this group as well, but I have seen several LP's w/ the group name as, Bob Dylan & The Band.
Those were mostly live albums.

thanks for the suggestions.

No prob Bob. Mainly The Band was Bob Dylan's backing band starting on the 1965 tour....actually I don't think they really played on his albums now that I think about it, my mistake.
