Bob Dylan - Blood On The Tracks (1975)

If you have recently broken up with someone, or have recently been broken up with, or simply remember the soul-destroying, life-changing, cold-sweat-inducing pain of having your heart broken, Blood On The Tracks is an album you must own. In fact, Blood On The Tracks is an album you must own regardless. Many before me have written about this album, and with good reason. It is quite possibly the best break-up album ever - not to mention one of Dylan's best. Written and recorded following a painful separation from his wife, Sara, in 1974, Blood On The Tracks is full of heart ache, pain and spiteful recriminations, just like any good end to a relationship. Songs such as Tangled Up In Blue show Dylan's unsurpassed skills as a songwriter, while Idiot Wind could have only been spawned from a bitter, thwarted heart. If you have never felt the sting of losing someone you loved, listen to If You See Her, Say Hello and you will know what it means to have loved and lost. Most importantly, though, Blood On The Tracks is an amazing collection of songs that should be a part of your collection.
