Every Bob Dylan Album Ranked Worst To Best

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan features many of the singer-songwriter's most enduring classics, including the deeply spiritual Blowin' In The Wind, the anti-war anthem Masters Of War, the comforting Don't Think Twice, It's Alright, and the complexly episodic ballad A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall, which he wrote when he was just 21.

Contemplating the threat of war and the complexities of the Civil Rights Movement, the record is at once a powerful piece of political protest, a surreal journey through the intricacies of American history, and a love ballad extravaganza that moves between genre and tone with remarkable ease.

Dylan's second album, Freewheelin' propelled the singer to superstardom, and acted a major step-up from his promising but incomplete debut the previous year with its assured sound, affecting lyricism and unwavering confidence.
