All great picks, and definitely all on my favorites list. "Street-Legal" rarely gets the acclaim it deserves. A friend of mine can't stand the album and he claims that his aversion stems from the choir of gospel women backing Dylan throughout the album. I've grown partial to the tone that it takes on and I feel like the songs exhibit a maturity in Dylan that listeners hadn't been acquainted with yet. I mean, Dylan had always been depicted as "wise beyond his years", but I think that the weight behind some of the songs on "Street-Legal" really showed another side of Bob Dylan. Pun intended.
