I think "Blonde on Blonde" was as innovative and influential as "Sgt Pepper" or any other rock album you care to name.
The word play on "Rainy day women"-(Everybody must get stoned!), the shifting perspectives of "Visions of Johanna", the surrealism of "Stuck inside of Memphis", the cynicism of "Just like a Woman" are IMO, unmatched to this day.
Genius is a word which is often applied to the mundane.
In this case, it`s totally appropriate.
