In 2018 I spent 4 months listening to all of my Dylan, including chunks that I haven't yet reviewed, in chronological order. Based on that listening experience, there wasn't much I would revise downward in rating (maybe Down in the Groove which is worse than I remembered), but there's a whole lot I would revise upwards. At some point when I have time (which means it's unclear if/when it will happen) I want to do a significant series of rewrites of my Dylan page, because there's quite a bit (especially in the late 70s-mid 80s) that would shift.
Among other things:
Street Legal would probably get bumped to an 8.
Slow Train Coming is a solid B.
Saved is in the 5-6 range now.
Shot of Love is about right, maybe an 8
Infidels should be an 8
