Afraid your wrong there pal, the earliest RELEASED recording of Dylan dates back to 1959, 'I've Got Troubles', released with the No Direction Home Soundtrack.
Aside from actual released pieces there's unreleased recordings of him from 1957.
sleepy jack - you've made an admirable and useful effort by reviewing the Dylan albums, it's always going to be hard with the breadth of his work and everybody having differing opinions on his songs. It would be fair to say there is no stereotypical Dylan 'fan', which is a testimony to the quality and variation of his music throughout his career. Although you do seem to gloss over certain landmark songs in his repertoire, then again that is subjective so what might seem a benchmark composition to one person is just another song to another.
