Man, "Blood On The Tracks" is a classic and it came at a painful time in his life when he was divorcing his wife. "Tangled Up In Blue" is like a painting but in the form of a song.
You must get "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" which is his second album and has not only "Blowing In The Wind" but "Hard Rain" and some really funny songs, funny in their satire of life in America in 1962. There are hauntingly serious songs there too like "Masters Of War" and Oxford Town" , the former dealing with the arms race the latter dealing with murder to Civil Rights' workers. A beautiful album.
Dylans last two albums are classics already, "Time Out Of Mind" and "Love And Theft". Check those out.
