Alert: If you're looking for a good present for a fan of good music (such as myself) or want to update your CD collection, Amazon.com has Bob Dylan box sets on sale for $25 right now.
Biograph, the ultimate Greatest Hits collection plus previously unreleased tracks and performances spanned over 3 great discs.
The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3, a 3 disc collection of outtakes and rarities covering his career from the early 60's through the late 80's. A great insight into the master's process. Hear "Like A Rolling Stone," Subterranean Homesick Blues," or "Idiot Wind" how they weren't intended and listen to the tracks Dylan thought weren't good enough for the albums (they're still pretty damn good).
Greatest Hits, Vol. 1-3, The three Greatest Hits albums released throughout his career (1967, 1971, and 1994, respectively) collected in one place on 4 discs. These discs are not normal retrospectives looking back on an aging rock star. These were released while he was still putting out great records (and he still is), and are iconic albums in and of themselves, especially Vol. 1 & 2. Who didn't have those on vinyl (or at least steal them from their parents)?
