Went with Mr. Bob on this one. I don't actually hate that Wilco album as much as some do, and probably would have voted for it if Bringing It All Back Home wasn't here.

YHF always reminds me of getting my tux straight, downstairs in the Mansion Hill Inn in Madison before getting hitched. Bloor, Busty and Hassler asked "what do you need?" and I said "Wilco, and some bourbon would be nice" and both appeared, as if by magic.

I voted Wilco, because I want that and Dylan to move on, and figured Dylan would have no trouble.

Doves

This isn't one of my Bob albums and I'm just not a Wilco guy.
Both of those albums though seem destined for victory in the category.

I've called the Ayatollah and told them you're 100% responsible for all the wicked Americanism currently infecting Iran.

YHF was a hugely important album to me in college, and because I am currently in the midst of a Wilco reawakening

That album and Blonde on Blonde are always battling for position as my favorite Dylan album. This was easy.

"Outlaw Blues' always struck me as one of the more stripped down and raw rock songs he ever did.

Although, that Surfers album is awesomely vomitous.

Seriously though, while I like Lost Souls quite a bit, but I couldn't honestly put it in the same league as that Dylan album.

Don't really know any of these records except YHF.
And I like that one enough that I don't feel bad voting for it.

I think it wins for "Clean It Up" :)

I like Bringing it All Back Home the best of his studio albums.
